What you’ll build
Plan your greatest invention yet: a giant chain reaction in five wild stages that does one silly job the hard way. Draw it like a comic strip, mark out each stage's zone in the Lab and set a parts budget for the whole machine.
Finish line: Your five-stage plan is drawn, each zone is marked in the Lab and your parts budget is set.
Bonus challenge: Add a secret Stage 6 to your plan that nobody expects. Keep it hidden until the big demo!
You’ll need
- Coloured wool
- Signs
- A long, clear building space
You choose
- My mega machine's name
- Its one silly job (ring a bell, open a curtain, start a party)
- My guess for how long the whole chain takes: ___ seconds
Stuck?
- Pick a silly job you can show at the end, like revealing a cake or a trophy.
- Give each stage enough room: carts and water need more space than you think.
- Keep your plan handy: the next missions build one stage each from it.
