Candy Dispenser

Level: Beginner

Beginner projects can typically be completed with little tooling (if any). Assembly can be completed in 20-30 minutes. We recommend this project for students ages 7+.

Objective: Construct a candy dispenser

Students will use basic carpentry skills to build a candy dispenser. Students will have an opportunity to get creative and express their interests by painting their candy dispensers and filling it with their favorite candies.

Instructors then have an opportunity to reinforce learnings by prompting questions such as:

• What skills were required for you to assemble the candy dispenser?

• How was it more or less challenging than other projects?

Supplies & Materials:

The following supplies & materials are included with this project:

• Wooden pieces for assembly (including dowels)

• Mason jar

• Wood glue

A hammer can be helpful, especially for younger students, to assemble this project but not required.
