Exploring the movement of toys



              In this lesson you will make and watch moving
              things.                                                                     Key words

                                                                                          faster/slower

            You can use forces to make toys move.                                         move





                                                                                          What
                  Make a toy car
                                                                                          different ways

               1  Work in a small group.                                                  can toys move?

               2  Think about how to make

                  a moving toy from card

                  or wood.

                 You will need some wheels.




                    How could you make it
                    even better?



               Make a balloon toy car


               1  Fix a balloon to the toy car you made.


               2  Put a straw in the balloon.

               3  Hold the end of the straw between your fingers.

               4  Carefully blow up the balloon.


               5  When you let go, the air from the balloon
                  pushes the toy car forward.






                    What forces                                                                 Warning!
                    move the toy                                                           Only blow up

                    car?                                                                   your own
                                                                                           balloon.
