Contraptions, Machines, and Wonders on Wheels
If you have a LEGOTM fan in the house (who doesn't?), try any of the titles in the LEGO Technic Idea series by technical writer and Lego guru, Yoshihito Isogawa. Even if you don't have all the parts ;-( you can still use the books to set your imagination free, improvise, invent, and build very cool functional models.
