Engaging in engineering activities fosters cognitive development in children. Through these activities, students employ a variety of materials to engage in problem-solving, design, construction, and creativity. Utilizing resources such as Legos, tinker toys, and cardboard bricks, students are encouraged to experiment freely. They grapple with questions, explore possibilities, and gain hands-on experience with concepts like balance and gravity through trial and error, cultivating their problem-solving skills.

​

The learning process evolves as students transition from asking questions and formulating predictions to actively testing their ideas and sharing the outcomes. By incorporating recyclables such as cardboard rolls, straws, string, and egg cartons, as well as plastic materials, they can bring their concepts to life, constructing items like pulley systems, levers, and marble tracks. This hands-on engagement allows them to reflect on their creations, pose further questions, develop hypotheses, and observe different approaches to problem-solving.

In these experiences, students take center stage, driving the investigation and establishing meaningful connections between theoretical concepts and practical applications.
