Sci Fri: Wheels & Axles

Completing our first of the Little House series, we set out some supplies to create the basis of a covered wagon. The wheels and axle portion had some guidance, but the rest was creativity in motion!

A simple book with a ton of experiments to try at home.
We noted the Hoop Tents, to inspire our covered wagons.

One of my favourite books! Macauley sketches hundreds of machines from their earliest state to present day and explains the mechanics in plain English!

We were taking this book out of the library so regularly, I ended up just buying the thing!
