Build a series of adorable, motorized robotic animals with this introductory mechanical engineering kit for kids aged five years and up.
An engaging illustrated 32-page storybook/manual centres around the adventures of the Omegas — a family of makers and engineers.
This story takes the characters to a robotic pet shop where they encounter all sorts of cute robotic pets, including an owl, french bulldog, sloth, panda, chameleon, cat, turtle, and rabbit.
As they follow the story, kids can build models of these eight robots and experiment with them to see how each one uses the battery-powered motor and mechanical parts to move in a different way. Large, cubic plastic building pieces make it easy for small hands to put the models together.
Robot Pet Shop provides a hands on way to teach simple engineering concepts to young children, allowing parents, teachers, and caregivers to lay the groundwork for strong STEM-related skills and comprehension at an early age.
Model building and experiments develop fine motor skills, mechanical engineering skills, visual-spatial skills, and reasoning and concept development skills.
Contains 107 pieces. 8 motorised models to make.
