The other day Batman found our catapult and got it out and started fiddling with it.
And then he started experimenting with it. He wanted to see how many things the toy he was launching would go over.
So, he lined up several dog toys, some dirty socks, a pair of scissors, a toy car. And launched it!
As far as I know it made it all the way over, but it’s hard to know for sure with all he was doing and everything he kept adding to his experiment.
It’s not much, but the kids spent the week up at the in-laws and then they all came down here, so it’s been a little hectic!
Great experiment. Thanks for hosting =)
It is wonderful that he has the understanding of the concept of scientific experimentation and the desire to experiment.
Sounds like he had LOTS of fun with his own, personal, experiment 🙂
Catapults are always fun for boys. We haven't done anything with them for a while. Guess I might have my older sons make one to show the younger boys….
Completely unrelated but just to let you know i have added instructions for fuzzy felt pictures https://alljoinin.blogspot.com/2011/06/making-fuzzy-felt-for-americans-flannel.html
That's some impressive catapulting!
I love it when kids experiment on their own. Looks like he was having so much fun with science, too.
How cool that he did this on his own!
I love this self-directed experiment. Sorry I haven't been commenting much. I've been out traveling for a week and totally slammed with work.
