Hello All!
 
Love those great ideas that always come across this list-serve.  I am a 
science teacher who is on the exhibits committe at my local children's science 
museum, so I am always scouting for something new and fun. 
 
We are planning a new exhibit area called the Simple Machine Castle.  It has 
a medieval theme, and we have a number of interesting exhibit ideas.  To avoid 
reinventing the wheel (pun intended) I am asking for your suggestions of 
STURDY exhibits related to the simple machines theme. Our target audience is 
children ages preschool through middle school.  Also, we do not have space for 
giant size exhibits in this area.
 
Thanks in advance for all your great suggestions!
