My family and I use simple machines every day. One simple machine that is used in my house is the screw. We use the screw in our house to build bookshelves, tables, and beds. We also use screws to mount shelves and paintings on walls. Some toys have screws to build toys and hold batteries in place. Another simple machine that we use is the wheel and axle. The wheel and axle are two parts that rotate together in which a force is transferred from one to another. My parents drive two cars. My siblings and I like to ride scooters. We have a wagon and strollers for my baby sister. The last simple machine we use in our house is the pulley. We use it to pull up and down the blinds and curtains.
