The Intro to Engineering Kit welcomes young children to the field of engineering with 25 experiments and building projects in five sections. By engaging in hands-on activities, children will learn how engineers apply their scientific and technical knowledge to design machines and devices.

• Learn some engineering basics with experiments on levers, forces, and pulleys. Build simple devices using these basic components.
• Move on to explore engineering on land by building vehicles with wheels, such as a race car and a wind-up car.
• Investigate engineering with air and in the air by building a helicopter, a pinwheel, a parachute, a glider, a balloon rocket, and an air-powered carousel.
• Build a diving bell, a sailboat, and a paddle boat to experiment with engineering in water.
• Find engineering in your own home with experiments modeling the telephone and television.

With a 48-page guidebook, Intro to Engineering teaches engineering fundamentals with step-by-step, hands-on experiments and building projects.
