Join Ty and Karlie as they embark on a boat-building adventure with their family's robots, Huxley and Remus. The fun and engaging story follows the two young engineers as they encounter various boats and build simple models of each one. The best part? These models actually float in water, so kids can conduct fun and easy experiments in the sink or bathtub.
The Boat Engineer story revolves around Huxley and Remus, who set out to catch a robotic fish that has gone haywire. They start by building a rowboat, but soon realize it's too slow. So, they construct a fanboat to pick up the pace. As the robots venture downstream and eventually out to the ocean, they encounter a range of challenges, each requiring a new boat to solve specific problems and perform tasks.
Throughout the story, kids can follow along and build non-motorized models of the ten boats featured, including a sailboat, riverboat, speedboat, fireboat, tugboat, freighter, catamaran, and a hydroplane. Each boat-building segment in the story teaches the robots something new about boats, providing a fun and educational experience for young readers.
The 52-piece science kit, combined with the beautifully illustrated storybook, offers an engaging way to introduce simple engineering concepts to preschool-age kids. The large, colorful plastic building pieces are perfect for small hands to put the models together, promoting fine motor skills, science and math skills, visual-spatial skills, and reasoning and concept development. This read-along and build-along adventure is a great way to lay the groundwork for strong STEM-related skills and comprehension in young children.
The kit is not only educational but also highly reusable, with parts that can be combined in a multitude of ways. It's a perfect choice for curious kids who love to learn through play. So, grab a copy of the story and start building and experimenting with the boat models today!
