STEAM Afternoon Activities
The children took part in a variety of activities, such as:
Binary code candy canes, assembling snowball catapults, taking part in gumdrop challenges to build the tallest chimney for Santa and construct different shaped presents. They also had to build the tallest tree using a given number of plastic cups, construct the longest paper chain out of a single piece of paper and hold reindeer races! A good time was had by all.
