Thames & Kosmos Gravity Bugs STEM Experiment Kit

Product Details

Create a gravity-defying robot insect capable of climbing smooth surfaces! Using air pressure and suction, do easy physics experiments. With step-by-step illustrated directions, assembly instructions, and online assembly and troubleshooting videos, a full-color, eight-panel handbook guides model construction. This kit has been the finalist for the Toy Association's 2022 Construction Toy of the Year! Gravity Bugs offers a fun, interesting introduction to physics and robot engineering through an interactive STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) experiment kit.

Ideal For Kids

Kids ages 8 and up can construct a robotic bug that comes out of the ground and can scale smooth vertical surfaces! This kit is a tough, simple-to-assemble plastic building system. Learn how the microbot is able to accomplish this amazing climbing feat using the principles of air pressure and suction! There are links to videos of Step-by-Step Assembly and Tips & Tricks. This is a fun, inexpensive, and instructive purchase-also a wonderful option as a birthday present!

Third-generation walk-walking technology!

The Gravity Bugs STEM kit is a follow-up to the Geckobot and Air-Walker STEM kits and uses a similar technology with improved functionality: the microbot can now walk up windows, walls, and other smooth, vertical surfaces with a compact design that is both entertaining and practical because of the advanced and distinctive system of suction cups.
