Description
Investigation: Earth! Explore the science of the natural world around us across three hands-on engineering and sensory activities. Move like the wind as you build a lightweight racer that uses a sail to harness moving air for power with the Sail Car; sculpt mountains, canyons, volcanoes, and other landforms with special Kinetic Sand that holds its shape when molded as you explore Earth's varied topography; and create your own "ocean" to visualize the layers found in Earth's seas as you explore the amount of light and different creatures at each depth.
Note: This kit includes a small sampling of activities from our All Things Earth Science virtual camp. If your child is registered for that camp, we suggest waiting for a later kit.
Details about pickup/delivery will be sent to the email address provided at checkout.
