Raise the woodpecker to the top of the pole and watch it peck its way to the bottom. What a cool way to show the conversion of stored potential energy into moving kinetic energy. On an advanced level, students can analyze the slip and stick movement of the woodpecker with the harmonic motion of the vibrating spring. This beautifully crafted wooden toy is made in the Czech Republic. It stands over 91 cm (36") tall.

Bouncing Animal Spring Demos

Hang them from a hook, give them a pull, and you have a wonderful demonstration of oscillation.

Dancing Robots (2 per package)

Great for observing a simple wind-up machine that changes elastic potential into kinetic energy.

Dropper Popper

This incredible device seemingly defies the laws of physics by bouncing higher than where you dropped it from!

Yellow Duck Walker

Place the wooden duck on the top of the ramp and watch it walk to the bottom.
