Did you know this?
There are only six types of simple machine in existence - lever, wheel and axle, pulley, inclined plane, wedge and screw - and every complex machine ever built is a combination of these. The wheel and axle itself was invented in Mesopotamia around 3,500 BCE.
What we heart most about this!
Turning one gear into five moving parts, no motor required. One turn of the handle and your whole scene comes to life.
You should try this
- Flip your background scene for a new story, or download the free farm scene from the Curiosity Hub for a third.
- Swap in your own tiny toy figures instead of the character sheet.
Challenge time
Add the lever extension and see how it changes the way your machine moves. Then flip your instruction sheet for the knight's maze.
