About This

• REAL-WORLD SCIENCE: Take a leap into engineering with a jumping robot you build yourself! Customize how it looks and jumps, then learn how the physics of potential and kinetic energy put a spring in your robot’s step. It's the perfect gift for 9+ year olds who love science!
• BUILD-IT-YOURSELF: This jumping robot kit for kids makes it easy! Construct the cams, hook up the spring-powered mechanism, then add the premade exterior (or create your own custom body parts). Then set your robot on a flat surface and flip the switch to see it get its hop on.
• EDUCATIONAL: Learn how the cams extend and release the spring, launching your robot into the air. Then experiment with some springy engineering and discover how changing the robot’s build changes how it jumps.
• HANDS-ON FUN: Give your robot a custom look using the blank body parts included in the crate and art supplies from home. Then learn all about the physics of jumping and meet some of the most impressive jumpers in the animal world.
