How do vehicles roll, tow and carry things? Our engaging building center teaches kids to look closer at real-life designs—and make original vehicles that use the same important elements! Created to encourage open-ended building with minimal teacher involvement, our center includes 8 photo cards showing actual vehicles, plus tons of hands-on manipulatives that invite children to build, explore & engineer—again & again! For easy reference, the back of each photo card explains key elements for each design—so it’s easy to guide children’s learning. You get 60 plastic snap-together pieces and 8 photo cards for building vehicles, exploring designs and identifying attributes. Center comes in an 11 1/2" plastic storage tub; longest building piece is 2 3/4".
Develops skills in creative design; motion; and fine motor skills.
