- They explored the concept of motion and how it can be controlled through the design of the Lego car.
- They learned about the importance of following instructions to create a functional object.
Encourage the child to continue exploring the world of engineering and design by challenging them to build more complex Lego cars with different features. They can experiment with different types of wheels, add gears for more control, or even incorporate simple mechanisms like levers or pulleys. This will help them further develop their understanding of science and engineering concepts.
