  Yes, there is a theory that science, technology, and mathematics are
pretty much the same thing for the younger kids (just something to
play with) but later these concepts are differenciated as kids mature,
making stuff based on physics could be an effective learning step.

  So, "Howtoons" http://www.howtoons.com/toons/ is another set of
interesting cartoons for making stuff.
