DazzLinks Beams Cardboard Builder Kits
Students build rolling, spinning, tipping cardboard creations with simple materials!
Perfect for a makerspace or open-ended lessons in design thinking and engineering, students use reusable cardboard beams, wooden dowels, and creative extras like pipe cleaners, rubber bands and marbles to explore building principles, chain-reaction sequences, and other interactive contraptions. Open-ended learning encourages students to ask and answer their own questions and use trial and error to solve problems. The Basic Builders Kit includes materials to introduce 1-2 younger students to autonomous building. The Individual Kit includes materials for 1-2 more experienced students. The Group Kit is perfect for 3-6 builders. The Class Kit includes pieces for 20+ students, making it a comprehensive engineering resource for the whole class. Recommended for Elementary and up.
