STEM Reindeer Activity Ideas<\/h2>\n

This is a lovely educational Christmas craft that gives kids lots of opportunities to make predictions and experiment.<\/p>\n

Kids can explore what happens when they use different thicknesses of yarn or place the holes in different positions.<\/p>\n

They can try to see how high they can make their reindeer fly by using different lengths of yarn.<\/p>\n

My boys enjoyed seeing who could get their reindeer to fly back to earth the quickest and quickly found that by adding a weight, (a coin taped to the inside) they could get it to land more quickly.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Once children understand how these simple climbing toys work, they can enjoy coming up with their own designs too.\u00a0<\/p>\n
