Over the project of Toys & Games, we explore different toys that are familiar to the children, like a windup robot. Using the Thinking Routines, "Parts, Purpose and Complexity" by Harvard´s Agency by Design Team, we decided to ask the children to imagine how the robot looked inside.

Many of the children thought the windup robots most definitely run on batteries. To their surprise, when we took apart the toy, they found out that there were no batteries or wire, as they had imagined.
