In the 4-H Engineering and Safety Science project, you will explore how everyday machines and equipment work while learning the importance of safety. From bicycles and lawn mowers to leaf blowers, tractors, and automobiles, this project introduces you to a wide variety of engineering areas. Along the way, you’ll gain practical knowledge, hands-on skills, and safe practices that you can use at home, on the farm, or in your community.
