Hey Lisa...

You can check out http://howtosmile.org to find hundreds of STEM hands-on
activities perfect for festivals!


The Lawrence Hall of Science recently had a booth at Maker Faire where we
made over 1500 Sound Sandwiches:

...and 500 Laughing Cups:

You can find many more low-cost activities like these by using the advanced
search feature at howtosmile.org. Or just start by typing in a term like
"sound" or "water" in the search bar, and narrow down the results to
activities under $1 in material costs by using the filters on the results
page.

Happy hunting!
