So what are these Harry Potter inspired STEAM challenges?
- Harry Potter Egg Drop: Can you use your wizarding skills to design a magical contraption to protect a raw egg during a high fall? We even made our egg into Harry Potter with a bit of Sharpie marker! He was the boy who lived…until the third drop!

- Balloon Astronomy Tower: Use your magic to create the tallest freestanding astronomy tower out of balloons!

Thanks!
