This activity allows children to learn the functions of a motor and center of gravity to see how it would allow a robot to move forward as if it were walking. The motor spins the axis, thus moving the legs of the robot to rotate and move forward. This would not be possible without the center of gravity of the robot as well. The popsicle sticks are strategically placed slightly more forwards to help balance the robot, shifting the center of gravity to help it stand up.
