Young Engineers - Angular Momentum Spinners - DIY Science and Engineering Gadget for Kids

More projects like this at Cubes: Glue gun: Explore the concept of angular momentum with this fast-spinning contraption. Try out different numbers and positions of wheels to create spinners that rotate like tops, or seem to defy gravity by spinning diagonally! The Young Engineers series is a collection of STEM Projects that I developed while teaching K-6 students. Every project uses the same set of inexpensive materials so it’s cost effective for parents and educators to do multiple projects or teach large groups.
