Snowball Catapults finishes Christmas Science Saturday on 5 December in Luxembourg City with a launch. Your child builds a working catapult, then tests which angle sends a snowball the furthest. Also, every experiment is explained in both English and French, so your child works in whichever language feels easiest.

- Ages: 5 to 11
- Venue: The Office Charlotte, 29 Boulevard Grande-Duchesse Charlotte, L-1331 Luxembourg
- Places: limited
- Cost: €30 per child per session, paid when you book
What your child will do
First, your child discovers how a stretched rubber band stores energy. Next, they build their own working catapult. Then they test different launch angles to see which one sends a snowball, a soft white pom-pom, the furthest. After that comes the tower target challenge, where everyone tries to knock a tower down. Each child takes home their catapult and a Junior Einsteins sticker.
Drop-off, and what we provide
Drop your child off at 4:30pm and collect them at 5:20pm. You don’t need to stay. We provide a lab coat and safety goggles, so there’s nothing to bring. The coat and goggles stay with us when the session ends.
