Junior Engineering Club


Youth Enrichment / STEM -
Winter/Spring 2025

Calling all future engineers! It’s time to develop your critical thinking, problem solving and collaboration skills through engineering disciplines.

New, hands-on lessons from various engineering disciplines. Focusing on developing 21st Century skills such as problem solving, critical thinking and peer collaboration.

These life skills provide students with the confidence to approach challenges in their lives and realize that they can succeed in almost anything! Engineering for Kids has a library of 300+ individual lessons which continues to grow so we never have to repeat lessons. 

Winter Lessons (classes beginning in January):

Order may vary.

Aerospace Engineering Rocket - Students explore aerospace engineering, learn about principles of flight and create and launch their own slingshot rocket.

Mechanical Engineering Mini Golf Maze - Students learn about force, gravity and friction by creating their own mini golf maze game. 

Acoustic Engineering Let's Drum! - Students learn about drums, how they make sound and learn about rhythms. Students design and build their own drums.
