SciFri: Engineering: Mechanical Sweeper

Today we studied about baleen whales and what that means. Did you know that they filter their food (little tiny creatures like krill) through a special broom like thing in their mouth that they have instead of teeth. It’s made of keratin just like my fingernails!

Then we engineered a mechanical sweeper that could pick up Pom Pom balls and other small objects.

    If you build us a sweeper for things on the floor, Gramps will take you out in the boat to see some whales in person!!
    He would probably do that even without the sweeper I suspect–
