STEM Challenge Lab: Test your skills with monthly hands-on challenges in science and engineering—exploring inertia, weight distribution, and more. Fun, creative, and competitive!

Step into the STEM Challenge Lab at the Cochran Public Library! This monthly program takes the place of LEGO Lab and introduces exciting new ways for kids and teens to explore science and engineering. Each session presents hands-on challenges that encourage problem-solving, teamwork, and creativity. Participants might experiment with inertia, weight distribution, balance, or structural design—all while tackling fun, competitive tasks that test their skills.

The goal of the STEM Challenge Lab is to make learning feel like play. Whether you’re building, testing, or troubleshooting, you’ll get the chance to think like a scientist and an engineer while pushing your imagination to the limit. With fresh challenges every month and a competitive twist to keep things exciting, this program is perfect for curious minds who love to ask “what if?” and “why not?”

All materials are provided, and no registration is required—just drop in and get ready to take on the challenge!
