Kids First: Robot Safari Science Experiment Kit for Ages 5 to 7

Introducing an introductory mechanical engineering kit for children ages 5 and up to build a series of lovable, motorized robotic animals. The beautifully illustrated 32-page storybook revolves around the omegas, a family of inventors and engineers featured in previous early engineering kits. The story follows Remus, the family's robotic teddy bear, as he goes on a safari adventure after becoming separated from his family. Along the way, Remus encounters eight different robotic animals from around the world, including a polar bear, cat, narwhal, crab, fox, baby llama, unicorn, and sea otter.

Children can build models of these robotic animals and experiment with them to understand how each one uses a battery-powered motor and mechanical parts to move in different ways. Large plastic building pieces make it easy for small hands to assemble the models. Robot safari provides an interactive way to introduce simple engineering concepts to young children, laying the groundwork for strong STEM-related skills at an early age.

The kit is designed for children aged 5 to 7 and includes instructions to build motorized robotic animals such as a unicorn, sea otter, fox, bear, baby llama, crab, cat, and narwhal. The full-color, 32-page storybook centers around the adventures of the omegas, a family of makers and engineers, and their robotic teddy bear, Remus, who embarks on a safari adventure after becoming separated from his family.

The building exercises in the kit help develop fine motor skills and are compatible with other early engineering kits. This introduction to STEM learning teaches simple engineering and robotics concepts to young children. The battery-powered motor box included in the kit is what brings the models to life (2 AA batteries required, not included). Overall, the kit provides an engaging way for children to learn and understand mechanical engineering concepts from an early age.
