We read the books, Pete the Cat Saves Christmas and the Grinch!
After we read these and talked about them, the activities began!
First stem center, we reviewed force and how it affects the notion of objects. Then they got their marshmallow blasters! The focus was to use just the right amount of force to hit Pete the cat and the grinch with a marshmallow from their blaster! I found these awesome blasters at Oriental Trading!!
The next center was to build the tallest chimney for Pete the Cat and/or the Grinch to go down. They used toothpicks and mini marshmallows!
The next center was marshmallow poppers! They had to figure out how to make their marshmallow pop higher then their neighbors! The marshmallow poppers were a hit and they are from Oriental Trading!
At another station, we made snow! The kids loved watching the chemical reaction when we added water to their snow pail! I got these from Oriental Trading!!!
To end our day, smore ornament making!!
I am a teacher blogger and these are my own opinions! Orientall Trading sent me the products to use and to give my honest feedback! #ad
