Science in Toyland
Build Them to Stand!
Some of the most famous buildings in the world can be made
from simple blocks. Put gravity to work as you construct
your own buildings.
Your building will stand as long as the center of gravity
remains within the area of its base.
Building blocks and stacking toys are excellent for exploring
center of gravity.

Science in Toyland was created by the California Museum of
