![]() I doubt any of my catapults will be very useful should I need to defend my town against a horde of hungry robots. Over the course of the next few weeks, leading up to the publication of EngiNerds, I’ll be constructing some of my own catapults using these and other designs I’ve found. Spaghetti Box Kids also provides a handy chart to help determine which catapult design might be best for your kid and/or you to tackle, as well as some great ideas for games that can be played once the catapult is up and running (or, I guess, built and launching). (I’m trying to tell you that it might be extra fun. But the extra effort will produce a sturdier catapult, and sturdier catapults can, of course, launch heavier objects greater distances. A couple of these do-it-yourself siege engines are slightly more involved than those found on the Kids Activities Blog.
