Cantilever & Race Car

Mia and Myles discovered that pbskids.org now has a new Curious George site. And let me tell everyone that I (Kelly) love this site. It is filled with so many ideas to fill their heads! Mia just recently watched a video about kids making cantilevers using cardboard, tape and books. We needed to try this! With the pieces of cardboard (no tape or books) she was able to build a 19 1/2 inch extension. VERY COOL!



Because one thing typically leads to another... she was inspired to make a race car out of the cardboard cuttings. It even has flames!
