Thames & Kosmos Kids First Physics Lab

Students will have the 20 models in this introductory physics kit racing, rolling, flying, falling, crashing, balancing, and spinning around in 22 action-packed science experiments. After building each model, students can test the models to demonstrate and comprehend basic laws of mechanical physics. Models include a balancing tightrope walker; a moving elevator; a high-g astronaut training centrifuge; a force meter; a pulley system; a crane; an inclined plane; a rocket car; a skee-ball mini golf ramp; a wheelbarrow; a balance scale; a trebuchet; a windmill; a drop-test device; various parachutes; a sundial; a rotating Earth-and-Moon model; a crash-test simulator; an airbag testing station; a working gear train; and an all-wheel drive vehicle with a flexible jointed design. 142-Piece kit comes with an illustrated, 80-page manual for building the models.
