This activity kit challenges students to create a hydraulic-powered device. The essential pieces, plastic syringes, and vinyl tubing are provided; it's up to the young scientists to determine how best to utilize their hydraulic system. Using the engineering design process students will create, evaluate, and redesign their simple machine until their objective is met. By approaching a problem or a challenge with this though process, children are able to make educated guesses, problem solve, and learn without the fear of making mistakes.
