Challenge yourself

Each week I will set you a creative challenge to complete

This weeks challenge is:

Can you make a rubber band powered car?

There are lots of tutorials on youtube if you do a search?

If you make one, why not send me a photo or video of it in action!

If you can’t find the materials you need, why not draw a labelled diagram and explain to me how it works?
