Using Stanford University’s Design Thinking Process, Upper School students in Ms. Yamamoto’s Engineering and Design class created a unique solution for retrieving Pringles from the lower half of the can. 

Using the 3D printers in the Makerspace, students created a prototype featuring spring activation. Its name? Springles! When attached, the “springle” pushes up the bottom of the can, which enables consumers to retrieve every chip with ease. 

The activity provided a fun opportunity for students to ideate as an engineering team.
