Supersized Skyscrapers 2:00 PM
Put on your hard hats and pull out your K'NEX as we learn how engineers create tall structures.

Once you have uncovered the secrets of a sturdy building, you can create your own and test it against the elements. We'll huff and we'll puff, but can we blow your structure down?
