These three mini solar kits are easy to assemble and demonstrate alternative energy principles. Running on sunlight they require no batteries.
Super Solar Racing Car
The solar powered car has surprising speed. It can be stopped quickly by shielding its power source. Eleven parts simply snap together.
Frightened Grasshopper
In sunlight eyes jiggle, legs wiggle, and antennas sway to-and-fro as the frightened grasshopper dances. Seven parts simply snap together.
Happy Hopping Frog
When placed in sunlight this little green amphibian sporadically leaps using its hind legs and rubber feet. With twenty-six parts, this kit is more challenging to assemble. Small screw driver required.
Little or no experience required. Recommended for ages 10 and up.
