Build a wind-up sea turtle that actually swims!
Your challenge: to create a wind-up sea turtle that can swim for the longest amount of time!
The specs: Using everyday materials, build a wind-up sea turtle that can swim. This is a tricky challenge, so we have provided some step-by-step instructions in the video below.
