By engaging in hands-on activities, children will learn how engineers apply their scientific and technical knowledge to design machines and devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStart by learning some engineering basics with experiments on levers, forces, and pulleys. Build simple devices using these basic components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMove on to explore engineering on land by building vehicles with wheels, such as a race car and a wind-up car. Next, investigate engineering with air (and in the air) by building a helicopter, a parachute, a glider, and an air-powered carousel. Then, build a diving bell, a sailboat, and a paddle boat to experiment with engineering in water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, find engineering in your own home with experiments modeling the telephone and television. Make a funny robot model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a 48-page guidebook, Intro to Engineering teaches engineering fundamentals with step-by-step, hands-on experiments and building projects. 2010 Parents' Choice Recommended Award.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0104\/6331\/3977\/files\/warningtriangle.jpg?v=1625083911\" width=\"25\" height=\"22\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0104\/6331\/3977\/files\/warningtriangle.jpg?v=1625083911\"\u003e WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD — Small parts.
