Daily Idea #101: Catapult

Who doesn’t love watching small items fly across the table? Maybe us adults since all I can think about is what sort of mess I have to then clean, but my kids love watching all things fly.

Today, we are using different objects to see what creates the best catapult— a plastic spoon vs. a metal spoon, or a fork, some chop-sticks with rubber bands… Experiment with different ways to create your catapult and see how far you can get a bead, a pompom, a lego piece, etc… to fly.
