What does woodworking have to do with physics and fun? You're about to find out! Making Inventive Wooden Toys is filled with high-octane, exciting, and slightly wacky toys for kids and parents to build together. These creative projects combine ingenuity and woodworking with real-life lessons in science, technology, engineering, art, and math-aka STEAM. Have fun building 27 easy-to-make wooden action toys that can do extraordinary things, like the Desk Top Rocket, the Anti-Gravity Box, the Ping Pong Ball Explosion, the Gator Snap, or the Horizontal Wheel-Top Racer. You'll find there's a secret treasure buried deep within each project... as they bring science to life and actually demonstrate the laws of physics right before your eyes!
