To celebrate the week, Marbles Kids Museum in downtown Raleigh has a bunch of activities so kids can learn more about what engineers do and consider the career path for themselves.
Here's what's on the schedule. Activities are free with admission, which is $5 per person at the downtown Raleigh museum.
Collaborate with NC State Engineering Undergraduate students to design, build and test a marshmallow tower that stand as high off the ground as possible! The trick: you can only use marshmallows and toothpicks.
Play around with things that fly, float and fall. Fizzy rockets, marble runs, catapults, sink or float boats and more!
Also, on Friday, "Dream Big 3D" opens at Marbles' IMAX theater. The movie explores how engineers change the world. And the Future Me Kids Career Fair is 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday. Kids can meet an architect, dentist, engineer and others.
