knex - 3-In-1 Amusement Park 744 pieces 3 builds

Bring thrilling fun and engaging learning into the classroom with the K'NEX 3-in-1 Classic Amusement Park Building Set, featuring 744 classic K'NEX pieces and three exciting builds. Designed for children aged 9 years and up, this iconic construction set reintroduces one of the original K'NEX experiences, inspiring creativity and exploration of mechanics through motion and play.

Students can construct a motorised Ferris Wheel, Swing Ride, or Boom Ride, each demonstrating principles of rotation, balance, and kinetic energy. With detailed step-by-step instructions for each ride included in the booklet, children can build one model at a time, enhancing focus and sequencing skills. Once complete, watch as motorised movement brings each structure to life, replicating real amusement park dynamics.

This set not only provides a sense of accomplishment but also introduces learners to key STEM concepts in a fun and engaging way. It's an ideal resource for classroom projects, design challenges, or interactive demonstrations during science and technology lessons.
