The MouseTrap Catapult is a fun and simple machine that uses a mousetrap to launch small objects like a toy or ball! It’s like a mini catapult you can build with just a mousetrap, some other items. The mouse trap’s spring helps the catapult launch things really fast when you set it off, just like a slingshot! This class shows you how to build and play with your very own catapult using the same idea behind a mousetrap. You can change how far or high the objects go by adjusting the mousetrap and how you set it up.
