Thames & Kosmos Kids First Amusement Park Engineer

Amusement Park Engineer presents a funny tale of two inquisitive characters and the simple amusement park rides they encounter on their hysterical family trip to the fair. As kids follow along, they can build and experiment with the 20 structures and machines in the story. Large, colorful plastic building pieces make it easy for small hands to put the models together. The kids start out by building a Ferris wheel, carousel, pirate ship pendulum, bumper car, free-fall tower, and log flume ride! They then come across a big roller coaster in need of a lot of repairs. They test out ten different configurations of the roller coaster track pieces. They experiment with flat tracks, slopes, humps, bends, and even varying the weight of the car to see how the roller coaster car behaves differently in each setup. From each humorous segment of their silly adventure, the kids learn a simple physics lesson and collect a funny souvenir.• 97 pieces• Durable storage case• 24-page storybook manual• Promotes STEM skills• Develops fine motors skills• Builds science and math comprehension• Strengthens reasoning and visual-spatial skillsAge Recommendation:Ages 3 to 7
