Make a Solar Oven from a Cardboard Box

May 31, by Sarah White. Leave a Comment

I’m pretty sure I’ve shared a solar oven project before, but it’s worth repeating because this is such a fun and easy science lesson for kids when it’s hot outside.

The Craft Train made theirs with a shallow cardbord box lined with aluminum foil, as well as a few other supplies you might already have on hand.

While you can cook food in a solar oven it’s a great way to to make project like these Sun Melted Crayons from Mama Smiles. Gather up all your broken crayons for this craft and see what new styles you can make.

(You could also melt chocolate for a fun solar powered snack.)
