Reading
Orville and Wilbur Wright were brothers who wanted to understand flight. They studied birds, built models, tested ideas, and improved their designs step by step.
Their success did not come from one lucky moment. It came from careful observation, repeated experiments, and learning from what did not work.
The Wright Brothers teach children that innovation is a process. Good ideas grow when we test, revise, cooperate, and keep learning.
