Home School Day — Boats that Float
Tue, September 22 - Thu, September 24, 2026 • 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM
Build It. Float It. Weather the Storm!
Make some waves with a hands-on LEGO® engineering challenge! During this Home School Day event, students will design and build their own boat, then put it through a series of floating tests.
Will your boat stay afloat? Can it carry cargo or passengers without sinking? And when the waters get rough, will your design survive the storm?
This fun STEM-inspired activity encourages creativity, problem-solving, and experimentation as kids test, adjust, and improve their creations.
