Introduction
 The Guide Engineering Badge focuses on the practical approach to design: a primary engineering skill
 However, engineering design could be described as the practical application of scientific principles
 An understanding of these principles is critical for engineering design.
 This activity explores some of the basic principles in a fun way. Units can complete one or all activities (available on OGM) for this option.

Leaders’ Hints See additional information overleaf
