According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bls.gov\/oes\/current\/oes172051.htm\">U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics<\/a>, the field has a median pay of around $89,940 a year, with steady growth in job availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend two tools for teaching civil engineering:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The book<a href=\"https:\/\/a.co\/d\/byD4Sv8\"> <em>Engineering in Plain Sight<\/em><\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The <em><a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/255710\/Cities_Skylines\/\">Cities: Skylines<\/a><\/em> video game.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Engineering in Plain Sight<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"403\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/journeywithadestination.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/engineeringinplainsightcover.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-895\" srcset=\"https:\/\/journeywithadestination.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/engineeringinplainsightcover.jpg 403w, https:\/\/journeywithadestination.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/engineeringinplainsightcover-242x300.jpg 242w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 403px) 100vw, 403px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><em>Engineering In Plain Sight: An Illustrated Field Guide to the Constructed Environment<\/em> by Grady Hillhouse is a wonderful beginner\u2019s guide to all the vast subdisciplines within civil engineering.&nbsp; As the title suggests, the book is essentially the civil engineering equivalent of a wildlife field guide.&nbsp; There are engaging sections on a wide range of engineering structures children are likely to see near their own homes, including bridges, power substations, dams, communication towers, interchanges, and dozens more.&nbsp; The book is not made for children <em>per se<\/em>, but is a fun read that is written at a perfect level to keep middle schoolers interested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book\u2019s author, Grady Hillhouse, is a licensed civil engineer with an excellent YouTube channel, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@PracticalEngineeringChannel\">Practical Engineering<\/a>, that covers a huge number of engineering topics in detail.&nbsp; The YouTube channel generally discusses engineering at a deeper, more challenging level of difficulty than <em>Engineering in Plain Sight<\/em>, so we don\u2019t recommend it for 6th grade.&nbsp; Nonetheless, students who are excited at the prospect of more civil engineering can certainly continue their studies with Practical Engineering videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time of writing, the book is available for $24.10 <a href=\"https:\/\/a.co\/d\/byD4Sv8\">on Amazon<\/a> (<em>not an affiliate link<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Cities: Skylines<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/journeywithadestination.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/citiesskylines3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-894\" srcset=\"https:\/\/journeywithadestination.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/citiesskylines3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/journeywithadestination.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/citiesskylines3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/journeywithadestination.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/citiesskylines3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/journeywithadestination.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/citiesskylines3-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/journeywithadestination.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/citiesskylines3.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Players will develop an increasingly complex city as they play the game.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In <em>Cities: Skylines<\/em>, players are challenged with designing and running their own cities from the ground up.&nbsp; They\u2019re tasked with managing the many different systems required for a city to operate smoothly: power generation, waste disposal, water distribution, roads, mass transportation, emergency services, tax rates, recreation, and more.&nbsp; Nothing will make your child feel like a real civil engineer quite like solving traffic jams and landfill overcrowding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Cities: Skylines<\/em> is a complex game, but at this grade level, students should be able to get started with it largely on their own.&nbsp; There are plenty of in-depth tutorials available on YouTube, in case they do need help with something.&nbsp; Cities: Skylines is a highly open-ended game that doesn\u2019t give players many specific tasks to complete, and they can freely develop their cities however they want.&nbsp;
