Engineering Challenge Kits
Early learners become problem-solvers as they complete exciting challenges that incorporate simple machines.
Students take aim with a catapult, pendulum, or wheel and use trial and error to complete challenges. These sturdy plastic kits provide early exposure to engineering and science concepts such as speed, angles, distance, force, and accuracy through fun, engaging play.
Kits support the development of fine motor precision, hand-eye coordination, and problem-solving skills. As students work together to complete the challenges, they develop social skills like taking turns, as well as regulation skills like working through frustration. Kits are available individually or in a Complete Set with all 3 kits. Kit accommodates 1-2 students; Complete Set accommodates up to 6 students. Recommended for Lower Elementary and up.
