Built a toy car

Science

• The child learned about the concept of motion and how it is produced by using the toy car.
• They gained an understanding of force and how it affects the movement of the car.
• They learned about friction and how it can either help or hinder the car's motion.
• The child also learned about energy transfer, as they observed how potential energy is converted into kinetic energy when the car is released.

For continued development, encourage the child to experiment with different materials and designs to see how they affect the car's performance. They can also explore the concept of aerodynamics by adding features like spoilers or wings to the car.
