About this printable

A STEM challenge without a constraint is just playing. Every card here sets one: build a bridge from ten sheets of paper, a tower that survives a book, a boat that carries twenty coins.

The constraint is what forces the thinking. Each card lists materials that are genuinely in most homes, gives a clear success test, and points at a variable to change and try again, which is the part that makes it science rather than craft.

Recording sheets ask what was predicted, what happened, and what would be changed next time. Forty challenges across structures, water, air, simple machines and energy, sorted by rough difficulty. Thirty three pages, A4 and US Letter. One teacher, one classroom, or one family.

Downloading and printing

How does the download work?

Pay and the files are yours straight away. A download link appears on the confirmation page and the same link is emailed to you, so nothing depends on you staying on the site. Links stay live for 72 hours and each file can be downloaded up to 5 times, so save it to your own device on the first go. Full walkthrough: how to download.

Printing tips for the best result

Print at 100% or "actual size" rather than "fit to page", otherwise the margins shift and the pages stop lining up. A4 and US Letter are both included, so pick whichever your printer is loaded with. Plain paper is fine for worksheets; use 160-300 gsm card for anything you plan to cut out, and laminate or slide pages into a wallet when they need to survive a dry-wipe pen.

What the licence allows

Your purchase covers personal use and use in a single classroom by one teacher. Print as many copies as you need for your own family or class. You may not resell the files, pass them to other staff or schools, upload them anywhere, or use them commercially. For a whole-school or department licence, get in touch. Full wording: licence terms.

Refunds on digital goods

Because the file is delivered instantly and cannot be handed back, downloads are not refundable once the link has been sent. If a file will not open, is missing pages, or is not what this page described, contact us and we will fix it or refund you. The refund policy has the detail.

Questions about SEL & STEM Cards

Do the STEM cards need special equipment?

No. The experiments use common household items, listed on the card itself.

Are these suitable for children with additional needs?

The cards are visual and use very little text, which suits many children who find a lot of words hard going. You know your child best, so look at the preview pages first.
