Make a catapult

Report Copyright Infringement View in OSM UK

Description

Make a catapult - we actually used pens instead of sticks - they worked just as well and did not cost anything. The kids loved making these - they are very effective, simple and fun. Use mini marshmallows, scrunched up paper, bits of potato etc as missiles.


Resources

Pens, elastic bands, plastic spoon

Instructions

Using elastic bands make a simple catapult. Let the individuals experiment with projection by moving the spoon, adding different sized missiles, etc.
