The rubber band car is a toy that kids can play with to learn about motion through elastic potential energy. It is made of translucent colored plastic parts that the kids can assemble themselves. An axel runs through the car's body and is attached to a fan on the rear. An (un-stretched) rubber band is tied to each end of the rod. Once the car is assembled, kids turn the fan in the back to wind the rubber band around the axel, and release it to set the car in motion. This concept could include further components such as a track, or game prompt and multiple cars for kids to race with each other. It is targeted for kids ages 7+.
