Pizza-box solar ovens are perfect projects for elementary school kids and older! Next week I'll be making them ahead of time for the preschool group so that they can melt candles inside them and watch the temperature rise as we put them out in the sun. In the past, my solar ovens have reached temperatures around 200 degrees F. They don't get too hot, but hot enough to melt things! I haven't tried cooking anything in them-- I would want the temperature to be at least 350 degrees F for that. So I need to refine the design a bit to reach that goal.
If you are interested in making a pizza-box solar oven, here is a great youtube video that shows you how to do it step by step. Enjoy!
