SO I PROMISED A REPORT on the Trebuchet kit I bought for my nephew’s 9th birthday. He took a while getting around to building it because he was absorbed in learning how to program Java animations via the Khan Academy (and then in helping other Khan Kids to do the same), but he put it together — all by himself — over the weekend and it worked perfectly. The photos my brother sent show him looking quite gleeful.
