Hello,
The solar oven can take quite a bit of time to cook. The activity says to leave it in direct sunlight for at least thirty minutes. However, the exact time can depend on many factors, including how hot it is outside and how direct the sunlight is. If you want to speed up this process, take a look at the Further Exploration section to get some ideas on how to improve the solar oven: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/stem-act ... solar-oven

Have fun with this project!
