Move over boys because a fun way to learn science and experiment with building tools for girls is now available!
The Barbie STEM kit is a wonderful way for children to experiment with Science, Technology, Engineering and Math all in one kit.
And hey, if your little boy is into Barbie, he’s going to love this.
Features
The set comes with 122 plastic building pieces and a 32-page illustrated book. The kit includes a colorful storybook which guides through a story what Barbie and her friend Nikki need to do to complete their tasks.
The guidebook is completely illustrated and complete instructions are provided on how to carry out various experiments.
With this kit, your child will get to build a good spinning closet rack, washing machine, jewelry holder, hammock, dress designer platform, greenhouse, and a shoe rack.
Also, every girl’s favorite activity is to play dress up and now they can create the chromatography and leaf-print dress, plus optical illusion origami dresses too.
This is such an exciting kit. It shows Barbie and Nikki stuck in situations where they have to use logic, science, and smarts to solve problems.
Therefore, this kit will provide your child with countless hours of play and get him or her interested in STEM from a young age.
The learning process through this kit is very encouraging since it explains how different types of mechanisms work for different models.
The various concepts of a building are not applicable to all models, so children get to think what they are doing, how they are going to do it, and how one modeling structure differs from another.
Science couldn’t have been more fun than this STEM kit.
