STEM DIGITAL ACTIVITY PACK HOW TO GROW FOOD ON MARS Grades 3–7 | Ages 8–12 | 4–6 Hours | Project-Based Learning
The rations won't last forever.
The next supply ship is months away. The crew is hungry. And the only way to survive long-term on Mars is to grow food on a planet that has never grown anything in its life.
No pressure.
This mission is a full plant science and engineering challenge where your child becomes the crew member responsible for keeping everyone fed — using real space agriculture science and a whole lot of creative problem-solving.
What's inside:
Your crew — Marsus, Oppy, Blorp, Lily, and Jake — guides your child through every phase of the mission. They'll figure out what plants actually need to survive, engineer a growing system that works in Martian conditions, solve problems with soil, light, water, and atmosphere, and grow something real using household materials.
Three reading levels (Cadet, Explorer, Commander) mean every kid has a way in, whether they breeze through it or need to take it slow.
What they'll actually learn:
Why growing food on Mars is one of NASA's most urgent challenges right now
How photosynthesis, soil science, and hydroponics work in extreme environments
How to engineer around problems — no magnetic field, no breathable air, no normal soil
What it feels like to think like a space botanist
What you're getting:
This is a digital download — 35 pages, delivered instantly. Available in full color and black and white so you can print whatever works for your printer and your budget. NO PHYSICAL PRODUCT WILL BE SENT.
