CANDY VENDING MACHINE - SUPER STUNTS AND TRICKS

550104 AGES 8+ MSRP: $39.95 CASE PACK QTY: 6 EXPERIMENTS: 10 PIECE COUNT: 48 (ESTIMATED) MANUAL PAGES: 16

Ever dreamed of having a vending machine in your room? With this engineering kit, you can build and experiment with your own toy vending machine. First, follow the step-by-step instructions to assemble the machine. Then test and configure it to get it working perfectly. Load your vending machine with the included soda-bottle gummy candies or any other small candies or prizes you supply, and you’re in business! Insert some coins and have fun watching them get sorted, perform stunts as they slide down the tracks, dispense prizes, and finally end up in the coin bank in the base of the machine.

This awesome vending machine has four main interactive segments: First, you insert coins (quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies) into in the slot at the top and turn a knob to sort the coins. Then, the coins fall into an interactive coin track area where they slide down ramps, make jumps, and ring bells. Next, the coins fall into a device that allows you to make your “purchase” with the push of a button. Your prize pops out of the machine, and the coin falls into the bank, sorted into neat stacks by denomination.

The vending machine can sit on a tabletop or hang on a wall. A small key allows you to access the vending machine compartments for refilling the prizes.

Explore lessons in physics, math, and mechanical engineering as you build and play with the vending machine. Learn about gears and other simple machines, gravity, forces, motion, and collisions. Try some simple math lessons related to the coins and money.

• Soda-bottle gummy candies included! • Have fun engineering a vending machine • Make coins do fun stunts and tricks and learn physics lessons • Automatic coin-sorting bank • Pretend-play vending machine experience • Stands up on a tabletop or hangs on a wall

555004 AGES 8+ MSRP: $99.95 CASE PACK QTY: 6 MODELS: 10 PIECE COUNT: 182 MANUAL PAGES: 48 Build your own motorized vehicles and machines and control them with a wireless remote control unit. A unique six button infrared remote allows you to control three different motors simultaneously, moving each of them forward or in reverse, with easy-to-activate touch sensors. The three motors can be combined to make complex vehicles and machines in numerous configurations limited only by your imagination.

Ready your courageous robots for a mission to Mars! With this engineering kit, you can build a remote-controlled model of a robotic rover resembling the ones used to explore Mars. Construct nine other space-themed models including: a lunar rover, rocket launcher car, space shuttle, robotic payload arm, moon lander, satellite, Mars station, and more.

Build your foundation in architectural design with this fascinating STEM experiment kit that explores the engineering principles behind planning and developing buildings and structures. Through model building exercises you play the role of architect and engineer as you piece together an array of models, from small, basic structural elements like trusses, arches, and domes, to giant complex models of architecturally significant buildings from around the world.

ROLLER COASTER ENGINEERING

625417 AGES 6+ MSRP: $49.95 CASE PACK QTY: 6 EXPERIMENTS: 20 PIECE COUNT: 335 MANUAL PAGES: 32

Build and experiment with dozens of roller coaster models to learn the physics of force, motion, and energy. Conduct a series of hands-on physics and engineering lessons with this easy, modular building system. Piece together the sturdy frame structures and then attach the flexible track to it to build and test endless roller coaster designs.

Experiment by varying the weight of the cars and varying the slope, length, and direction of the track. Get a practical introduction to many physics principles including gravitation, potential energy, kinetic energy, free fall, projectile motion, friction, centripetal force, velocity, acceleration, and more.
