Thames & Kosmos

An informative first engineering kit.

Enthusiastic young magicians will be enthralled by this awesome magic set!  With full instructions and over 40 props to help you perform 35 tricks, you’ll be in the Magic Circle in no time!

A refracting telescope with x 12 magnification, a sturdy metal focuser and comfortable soft eye cup.  A great way to explore the surface of the moon, search the night sky or study nature close up.

STEM experiment kit with 54 pieces, that make 5 different models powered by the sun.  Learn how the solar cell converts sunlight into electricity to power the motor.  Ultralight materials, including bamboo rods make the models speedy and durable.

A cool introduction to mechanical physics.  Work through the 32-page manual to perform 26 experiments. Learn about and assemble examples of six simple machines with this fascinating 132-piece set.  Start off with the simple models to gain an understanding of the basic principles, then move to larger more complex models like the Geared Carousel or Pulley Elevator.  Set includes precision spring scale.

Build a robot that walks along a tightrope thanks to a motorised gyroscope unit – it will even walk along your arm!  Learn about physics, robotics and how gyroscopes are used in everyday life.  Set includes 43 pieces to complete 8 experiments and a 24-page manual.  Requires 3 x AAA batteries, not included.

Junior chemists can safely explore simple chemistry using this awesome 26 piece set.  Using the tools and common household substances, conduct experiments to identify different chemicals using reactions, heat, evaporation and crystalisation and so much more!  Includes a 48 page colour instruction manual to perform 27 fascinating experiments.  For use under adult supervision.

Build 15 different models from 165 pieces, building vehicles that run on air and water pressure and learn physics with action-packed experiments.  A fascinating set for the older child to build and power awesome vehicles!
