"The Capsela motorized building system provides children with ""hands on"" experiences so that they can learn about energy and forces by actually handling batteries, creating motors, and seeing for themselves how energy changes with the help of visible gears and wheels. Each kit contains an easy-to-follow activity booklet that introduces basic science concepts. Smaller kits explore energy changes, electric circuits, motion energy, speed, and torque. Larger kits also provide introductory lessons on friction and traction, chain drive, inclined plane, crown gear, electrical switch box, buoyancy, electric circuitry, force, transformation of energy, vacuum, wheel-and-axle, friction, propellers, and Newton's third law (""to every action, or force, there is equal and opposite force""). The Robot Racer set is a fun way for kids to learn about energy changes, electric circuits, motion energy, friction and traction, buoyancy, and electric circuitry. Instead of just reading about energy or forces, the Capsela motorized building system allows you to handle interlocking parts, create motors, and see for yourself how energy changes with the help of visible gears and wheels. This fun introduction to simple robotics allows you to build the robot racer projects shown in the guide, then invent your own! Learn about kinetic energy and friction with the easy to understand reference material included. The 24 interlocking parts include a pull-back motor and a miniature action figure.
