Try It Truck

The Try it Truck is BADM’s engineering lab on wheels! The teal Truck you know and love is back in action and newly reimagined. This means brand new stations and brand new problem-solving adventures for PreK – 5th graders. Bring our hands-on STEAM programming to your school, camp, or library!

Students will Think, Make, Try® through ideas and build creative problem-solving skills by exploring hands-on stations, asking questions, designing solutions, iterating on their choices, and experiencing concepts of cause and effect, energy, and structure and function.*
