Gumdrop Christmas Tree Challenge
Gumdrop Christmas Tree Challenge
"Are you a fan of gumdrops? I don’t love sticky candies in general, so it’s a no for eating gumdrops for me. But as far as using them in STEM challenges? Yes, please! If your kids have tried building 3D structures with marshmallows and toothpicks before, they might have had some difficulty keeping the pieces together. Gumdrops are a lot denser than marshmallows, and therefore you are able to build taller structures with them without them collapsing. "
