Toy cars are a great tool for learning about forces such as friction, momentum, inertia and the effect of changing gradients of ramps.
You’ll need a few extra items for some activities, but hopefully, you already have most of them around the house.

More science experiment ideas for preschoolers
Embrace the messy side of science with a sensory science station. Make fizzy potions, oobleck slime and lots more.
Frugal Fun also has some great ideas for science experiments with toy cars.
Try some magic opening flowers made using just paper and a tray of water or one of my other preschool science experiments!
