Junior Engineering Club
Step up and perform like a real engineer as you tackle exciting challenges. Build, brainstorm and problem-solve while sharpening teamwork skills and showcasing creative solutions that bring ideas to life!
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.
