Structural Material Testing & Changing Shapes
Science & Innovation
Your child can test how forces like bending, twisting, stretching, and squishing alter everyday materials, identifying which materials return to their original shape.
In real life
After stretching a rubber band and squashing a lump of clay, your child says, "The rubber band jumps back, but the clay just stays squished."
