This exciting addition to our construction range is fantastically versatile and can be used in design lessons with a wide range of ages. It even has applications in Key Stage 2 classrooms. Children can explore structures, supports, mechanisms and rigidity in any way they choose. The ball joints allow for the construction of moving parts and vehicles so this construction kit is perfectly placed alongside your small world. The kit comes in a sturdy box with a lid and a picture sheet for inspiration.
