STEM Pinball Machine Kit with Reconfigurable Design and Gumballs Included

Explore the sweetest pinball machine ever created, where you can embark on a journey of learning physics and mechanical engineering! Immerse yourself in building your own customizable pinball machine that utilizes edible gumballs as the pinballs. As the gumballs bounce off bumpers, slingshot around spinners, ring bells, slide down tracks, and whiz around the obstacle course you design, you'll learn about fundamental concepts like force, motion, collisions, gravity, and simple machines.

The reconfigurable and reusable building system offers a wide array of obstacles, including bumpers, slingshots, bells, and ramps, which you can freely rearrange to create countless unique configurations, allowing you to test and refine your designs with ease. The pinball machine's spring-powered launcher and responsive flippers mimic their real-life counterparts, propelling the gumball pinballs in all directions.

A central ramp rotates to direct the projectiles into three elevated playing areas, ultimately leading them down the winning ramp, where the gumball can be claimed as a sweet prize. Don't worry if you miss your mark – a cool mechanism called an Archimedes screw stores the fallen gumballs and moves them back towards the launcher, ready for a new game.

This fun, gamified approach to learning physics concepts encourages hands-on experimentation, creative problem-solving, and hours of open-ended play that delivers a different experience every time. The kit comes with approximately 45 delicious standard machine-size gumballs, allowing you to immerse yourself in the tactile and edible aspects of this educational endeavor.

Build your own customizable pinball machine that uses edible gumballs as the pinballs, and embark on a captivating journey of discovery, where you'll explore the fundamental principles of physics and mechanical engineering through an engaging, hands-on experience. Let the gumballs bounce, slingshot, and whiz around as you uncover the secrets of force, motion, gravity, and simple machines, all while indulging in a sweet treat.
