Watch out — robots gone Rogue! In this new adventure in the kids first early engineering series, the Omega family takes a trip to a robot factory where the robots have gotten a little out of control. One by one, The wacky, motorized robots are fixed up and put back into working order, with the help of the omegas — and you! As you follow along with the 32-page illustrated storybook manual, you’ll build working models of the eight different classic robots and experiment with them to see how each one uses the battery-powered motor, gears, and other mechanical parts to move its arms or legs in a different, funny, zany way. Through building and experimenting, kids get a unique look at how simple mechanical systems work. Large, cubic plastic building pieces make it easy for small hands to put the models together. Robot factory provides an engaging way to teach simple engineering concepts to young children, allowing parents, teachers, and caregivers to lay the groundwork for strong stem-related skills and comprehension at an early age. Model building and experiments develop fine motor skill, mechanical engineering skills, visual-spatial skills, and reasoning and concept development skills.
- Fun, hands-on introductory mechanical engineering kit for ages five and up.
- Includes a 32-page, full-color storybook manual that follows Ty and Karlie Omega, two young engineers, on their trip to the robot factory, where the robots have gotten a little out of control! With their help--and yours!--each robot is put back into working order!
- Step-by-step illustrated assembly instructions guide kids through the construction of eight different classic robots and simple explanations and questions introduce kids to key engineering concepts and get them understanding why each robot moves in a different, zany way.
- The models move thanks to the included battery-powered motor box (2 AA batteries required, not included).
- Large, cubic building pieces are perfect for the target age group and develop fine motor skills.
- Building pieces are compatible with those from other Kids First early engineering kits; combine to dream up your own creations!
