One of our most popular posts is this great collection of Fairy Tale science activities, so when the lovely Mrs Mactivity asked if we’d like her to create some resources to sit alongside our Fairy Tale STEM challenges, we said YES!
These Fairy Tale STEM activities are great for elementary or primary school-age children and a fantastic introduction to learning how to set up investigations correctly to start working scientifically. Most of all, they are just good old-fashioned science fun! All are very hands-on and great for keeping kids engaged.
Next time you design a raft for the Three Billy Goats Gruff, grow a bean for Jack, make a candy house for Hansel and Gretel, or a bridge for The Gingerbread Man, don’t forget to use these too!

If you try any of the activities, I’d love to see them, so don’t forget to share photos on social media and tag @sciencesparks. I think my favourite is the candy house for Hansel and Gretel; it always keeps my children busy for hours!

I love and appreciate all the great ideas and freebies. However, your website is difficult to maneuver and sometimes very convoluted. There are so many ads and you show pictures of printables yet I cannot find the link to download these printables. Please help.
If you click on the image you should be able to download the printables. I hope that helps.
