Unlock Minecraft’s powerful potential as a teaching tool with these engaging in-world and real-world activities for kids!
Written by two experienced educators who have successfully used Minecraft in their classrooms, Ultimate Unofficial Minecraft Challenge teams in-game builds and other projects with out-of-game, hands-on activities to create fun adventures in learning.
Adapted from the authors’ popular and well-reviewed Unofficial Minecraft Lab for Kids and Unofficial Minecraft STEM Lab for Kids, Ultimate Unofficial Minecraft Challenge offers a series of exciting “labs” or lessons across a range of subjects, including STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), art, culture, and history.
Create shadow puppets to perform a scene from a favorite story, then recreate and animate a movie scene using Minecraft.
Grow crystals using a super-saturated salt solution, then build a crystal castle in-game.
Fold and fly paper airplanes, then let your imagination run wild while crafting airships in Minecraft.
Concoct glow-in-the-dark goo, then set up a colorful light spectrum in-game using beacons.
And more!
Kids ages 7 to 11 and their families will especially enjoy this fun and unique approach to learning about Minecraft as an educational tool and working on art and craft activities or STEM experiments together.
