Dear Bloggers,

In Robotics, 2M designed and made a ‘Popcorn Cart’ with a slowly spinning sign, that was turned by a handle. The children used a small gear (driver gear) turning a larger crown gear (follower or passenger gear) to make the sign spin slowly, allowing the words on the sign to be easily read.  The cart had to be mobile, stable, have a suitable compartment for the popcorn and at least one seat for the driver. Here are some wonderful examples of the children’s work.

Thanks for calling by
