Catapult...

My youngest has been learning about the Medieval Times... It has been very interesting for him.

His assignment this term was to build something that they used back in those times... He chose a Catapult :)

There was much time spent finding just the right one. Then many hours spent in the shed making it. His prototype was made out of pencils and rubber bands. Rubbers from the pencil ends ended up as ammunition :)

The end result is fantastic! He was very happy with it. He also had to name all the different parts and answer questions about it. Was a great process and great bonding time with hubby too :)

Cheers
