Discover simple machines in everyday life!

In this workshop, kids will explore the fascinating world of levers. Through fun experiments and real-world examples, they will learn to identify and differentiate between first, second, and third-class levers. By the end of the lesson, kids will understand how levers work and will practice simple calculations to measure effort and load force. Let's see how these everyday simple machines help us lift, move, and play!
