This set of building challenges based on famous Scottish landmarks, can be completed using recycled materials, and/or craft materials e.g., lollypop sticks, matchsticks, playing cards, pipe cleaners, straws, cardboard etc. or any construction kits e.g. KAPLA, LEGO, K’NEX, makedo (Makedo UK) etc.

The challenges have an engineering focus and sit within the ‘Craft, Design, Engineering and Graphics’ part of the Technologies Es and Os, specifically the ‘Design and construct models/product’, ‘Exploring uses of materials’ and ‘Application of Engineering’ organisers.
