LEAP Lab: Make a Bouncy Ball

Registration recommended! You’ll be the first to learn of event details or if the location or date changes due to inclement weather.

In this hands-on engineering activity, participants will create their own bouncy balls using materials found around the house. Explore how mixing materials in different ratios can affect the material properties of their bouncy balls! This program is designed with ages 5-9 in mind, but all young scientists are welcome to attend.

Presented in collaboration with the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department at MIT.
