Drop a coin in, peek through the window… and it's gone.
Build your own money box that makes coins disappear before your eyes. But it isn't magic. It's the mind-bending science of optical illusions. Your eyes see the box perfectly well; it's your brain that gets tricked into believing something that isn't true. Magicians have been using that trick for centuries, and now you know their secret.
Once you've mastered the illusion, take on the STEM challenge: design and build your own booby-trap box that pops, flips or reveals a surprise when it's opened.
