After watching a Crunch Labs video, the kids wanted to challenge themselves to build a house of cards and destroy it. This led into a much longer more elaborate project then was anticipated. In the Crunch Labs video Mark Rober challenged his viewers to create a house of cards and destroy it in an interesting way.
So, here we go. We started by gathering all of our supplies which included: hot wheels track, matchbox cars, Legos, Duplo's, hot wheels loop to loops, Mouse Trap game, checkerboard, Mexican Train Dominos, and every playing card we own. We started with the hot wheels track to know where our car would exit into our house of cards.
The house of cards which turned into a stadium took 2 and a half painstaking hours to create. It also required 3 decks of playing cards, 2 decks of Uno cards, 1 deck of Phase 10 cards, and 1 deck of Skip bow cards. Plus, a glue stick to help hold the cards together temporarily.
Next came the Mexican Train Dominos. This part was a mistake, because they are thinner than regular dominos and proved to be extremely difficult to stand up. Mouse trap took some tinkering. After an hour of adjusting items on the game board we added a penny to the side of the swinging arm with yellow bucket to add more speed. It worked but cost us a CENT.
Now that all of the parts were built and perfected to work consistently it was time for the car to destroy the cards. Big problem the house of cards or stadium of cards were constructed to not fall easily. So, Joseph received the green light to be the destructive force. He was elated with the opportunity. On the cue of the car entering the stadium and breakneck speeds he destroyed the Stadium with his newly created Lego John Deere Tractor and Trailer. The dominos were triggered, and the mouse trap game worked flawlessly. The Lego character was captured along with his accomplice one of the mouse trap mice.
This was a wonderful project that took 3 times as long as was expected and required a lot of patience, brain breaks and reengineering. It was a time to remember for Charlotte, Joseph and Eleanor how they created something from there toys that took seconds to destroy, but hours to create.
If there is anything to draw out of this project is that Creating is far more difficult than destroying. That lessons should help them remember how easy it can be to drag a person down or a project rather than encouraging and helping to create.
