Introduce young learners to the world of engineering with Intro to Engineering—an exciting kit filled with 21 hands-on experiments and building projects across five key sections. Through these activities, children will discover how engineers use science and technical knowledge to design machines and devices.

Start with the basics of engineering as children learn about levers, forces, and pulleys. Build simple devices like a lever or pulley to see these principles in action. Then, move on to explore engineering on land by constructing vehicles with wheels, such as a race car and wind-up car.

Next, dive into engineering with air, building a helicopter, parachute, glider, and an air-powered carousel. Then, shift to engineering in water by constructing a diving bell, sailboat, and paddleboat to experiment with buoyancy and water propulsion.

Finally, find engineering principles in everyday life with experiments modeling telephones and televisions, and build a fun robot model to spark creativity and mechanical thinking.
