Calling all budding engineers and scientists: it’s time to get your build on. The STEM Amusement Park Set makes complex concepts accessible for kids, so they can learn how structural components work together to create awesome structures. And is there any better way to do it than by building motorized amusement park rides? Kids can build seven models, including a Ferris wheel, the London Eye and a merry-go-round. The different structures range in difficulty from pretty simple to quite complex, which allows kids to build based on their skill level. Cool factor: The instruction book features illustrated building instructions but also theory and facts, experimental activities and even a quiz to expand learning opportunities. Plus, your kid can get totally experimental and make their own things, so this toy won’t end up at the back of a closet. The materials are durable, so you'll be able to hand it down—assuming you don't end up playing around with it.
