Fun Games

Launchball by London's Science Museum
Launchpad is based on scientific principles. The goal of the game is simple. A ball is dropped. You have to position certain elements to direct the ball to its target. You can position fire, magnets, turbines and other elements. Of course, you need to understand how these elements work. Otherwise, you won't achieve your goal. Launch will certainly teach your children a little about science and physics. But, there's more to it than that. It can help your children use logic to solve a problem.
