National Geographic How Things Work Aeroplane Launcher STEM Kit

Description

Discover the fascinating science of flight with the National Geographic How Things Work Aeroplane Launcher STEM Kit. Combining hands-on construction with exciting experimentation, this educational activity allows children to build their own working aeroplane launcher before sending the included foam planes soaring through the air.

The kit includes 4 foam aeroplanes and a launcher mechanism for children to assemble themselves. Once construction is complete, they can put their creation to the test and discover how aeroplanes take off and travel through the air.
