Description
Curious kids can build a working model of a four-cylinder engine—complete with moving pistons, spinning fan, and firing spark plugs. This clear-bodied kit offers a rare peek at the inner workings of an internal combustion engine, making it a fun and illuminating hands-on project.
With more than 100 plastic pieces and easy-to-follow instructions, the Smithsonian Motor-Works Kit brings STEM concepts to life as kids screw, snap, and wire their way through the build. It's a great way to explore how real engines power our world.
Now in updated packaging—same hands-on STEM activities inside!
