We investigated different ways to use balloons, pipes and syringes to create movement and then came the challenging, fun and messy(!) part…we got to transform cardboard boxes, paper, material into our moving toys. Things did not always go to plan and often we had to adapt and change our ideas but in the end we created some wonderful models. We hope you like them too!
