Floating Love Boats Valentine STEM Challenge, Foil Boat Buoyancy Lab (K–3)
Cupid’s candy delivery boats are sinking, and your students are the rescue team. In Floating Love Boats, kids design aluminum foil “love boats” and test how many candy hearts they can load before the boat finally goes down. It’s hands-on, hilarious (in the best way), and sneaks in real science like buoyancy, stability, and the engineering design process without anyone realizing they’re learning. Students build, test, record results, then redesign and try again. You get instant engagement, mean
