The folks at Howtoons show and tell you how to try cool stuff. Of course you need parts and some guidance. (That's where we come in.) Try some of their best stuff: spool racers, ziplock ice cream, and paper making, with the whole group. Then choose projects to work on in a small group: their zoetrope, sled kite, or a freewheeling paper plate. Learn that the best of instructions only work with your help and thinking.
