Kids First Robot Factory STEM Experiment Kit: Build 8 Motorized Robots

This new adventure in the Kids First early engineering series follows the Omega family as they take a trip to a robot factory where the robots have gotten a little out of control. In the 32-page illustrated storybook manual, readers will join Ty and Karlie, two young engineers, as they help fix up the wacky, motorized robots one by one, restoring them to working order with the assistance of the Omega family.

By building and experimenting with working models of the eight different classic robots, young readers will get a unique look at how simple mechanical systems function. The large, cubic plastic building pieces make it easy for small hands to put the models together, developing fine motor skills in the process. As they construct the models, children will also cultivate mechanical engineering skills, visual-spatial abilities, and reasoning and concept development.

The battery-powered motor box, which requires 2 AA batteries (not included), is what brings the robot models to life, allowing kids to observe the different, funny, zany ways in which the models' arms and legs move using the motor, gears, and other mechanical components.

This introductory mechanical engineering kit, suitable for ages five and up, provides an engaging way to teach simple engineering concepts to young children. By laying the groundwork for strong STEM-related skills and comprehension at an early age, Robot Factory empowers parents, teachers, and caregivers to support the development of crucial foundations in these domains.

The beautifully-illustrated storybook manual serves as a guide, following the adventures of Ty and Karlie as they navigate the robot factory and work to fix the rogue robots. Clear and detailed step-by-step assembly instructions make it easy for children to build the eight motorized models.

Compatible with other Kids First early engineering kits, the large cubic building components are perfect for the target age group, helping to develop fine motor skills through the model-building process.

By engaging in this hands-on learning experience, children will not only have fun exploring the wacky world of robots, but they will also gain valuable insights into the inner workings of simple mechanical systems. This unique approach to early engineering education sets the stage for a deeper understanding of STEM-related concepts, fostering essential skills and a love for discovery and innovation.
