What you’ll build
Build a gallery of optical tricks: a hallway that shrinks as it goes so it seems to stretch forever, and a scattered picture that only snaps together from one golden spot. Then bring someone in from the side and watch them gasp.
Finish line: Your gallery has an endless-looking hallway and a secret picture that snaps together from the gold spot.
Bonus challenge: Add a third piece of the picture 30 blocks away at triple size. Can you make a word that only reads from the gold spot?
You’ll need
- Building blocks
- A gold block
- Coloured blocks for the picture
- A family member
You choose
- My gallery's name
- My secret picture
- Who I'll fool first
Stuck?
- Picture not lining up? Stand exactly on the gold block and check each piece from there as you build.
- Back half too small? Twice as far away needs to be twice as big.
- Hallway not fooling anyone? Shrink it evenly at the same spacing all the way down.
