“This kit was wonderful in engaging my kids - all of them, no matter their special needs, gender or abilities. It provided them the skills to persevere when something doesn't go right. They were all hooked and every time I brought out the Kit, their eyes lit up!”

 

What people are saying.

 

Hands on Science

“It was such a hands-on pathway to get them to understand circuits and the fact that they each had their own little booklet was such a bonus. Kinaesthetic learning is seriously where it's at!

The resources it comes with really do break everything down for someone (like me) who isn't TOO comfortable with Science-based topics.”

Suitable for all Leaners

“This kit scaffolded the kids through learning and was wonderful as it provided a great level of problem solving for those students who rushed theirs... They had to do it carefully for it to work. It was an activity that promoted collaboration and yet provided each student with their own learning journey that that could take home and explain to their parents. I couldn't recommend it enough!”
