Last month, the children spent time learning about simple machines. This week, we’ve learned about what a Rube Goldberg is and how it works in crazy and fantastic ways!

Here’s a video we love to show to the children to introduce the concept.

We watch the video and try to spot all the simple machines we can!

The older friends are brainstorming a design for a Rube Goldberg machine they would like to build. We’re working together in the older group to build one small step using a simple machine this week.
