I love STEM projects, but I love Halloween STEM projects even more and so does my nephew. He had so much fun making his Halloween Bat Plane. He loved the design and building phase even more than the actual testing and implementation phases.

He took a bit of extra time to get his Halloween bat plane just so. To make sure it would fly the highest height possible. He changed the ring sizes and shapes to see what would be best. It’s great to see children’s brains really work when they are given STEM challenges. They come up with solutions that I would never think of.

Then, he started testing his Halloween bat plane. He did make some adjustments. He moved the rings closer together to achieve more speed in his plane. All and all it was a very successful STEM project
