Crunch Labs Project: Boomerang Car with Magnets

 We worked on and finished the Car project from Crunch Labs today.  Crunch Labs is an excellent engineering project kit subscription that arrives once a month.  We're almost finished with our first year of Crunch Labs; I think we have four projects left.  Overall, this has been one of my son's favorite learning activities.  I plan to extend for a second year.

The kits are excellent quality and the instructions just couldn't get any better.  The videos are easy to follow and explain the physics behind the project.

Here are pictures and videos of the boomerang car my 9 year-old built.  There are magnets on the front of the car, so it can move metal objects.













They give you a little "scoreboard" and every time we complete a project, my son places another gear on the board.
