Let the children have fun learning all about the laws of mechanics with the award winning Physics Discovery Science Kit for kids from Thames and Kosmos. 

This absorbing and educational toy teaches through the construction of 12 models and 17 experiments applied using them to learn about forces and simple machines. Each model demonstrates a fundamental idea in mechanical physics.

For example, you can build a balance scale to learn about lever arms, a freight elevator to learn about pulleys, and a bicycle to learn about wheels, a spinning motion picture machine to learn about centripetal and centrifugal forces, and a geared transmission to learn about gears. Build a simple spring scale to measure the forces acting on your models and an inclined plane to learn about normal force and gravitational force. Make a water wheel powered crane and a catapult to learn about the transfer of energy. Finally, put all that physics knowledge to the test by building a sailing land yacht and a rubber band powered dragster.

Physics Discovery comes with an informative 32-page book with illustrated instructions for the building projects and experiments.  A great gift idea for kids who love constructing and a great way to engage children in science.  Recommended for ages 8 years upwards.
