Start your engines! The Rubber Band Car activity from Design Squad™Nation challenges kids to use the design process to build a two-wheeled car powered by a rubber band. Wind the rubber band, and potential energy is stored; let it unwind, and potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy... and away it goes! Resources from our online educator's library will help deepen the learning-there's an animation explaining potential energy, a TV episode about dragsters, and a video profile of a racecar engineer.
