DESCRIPTION
Create Robot Artists with the Science Buddies Art Bot, 20-Pack!
Inspire creativity and curiosity with the Science Buddies Art Bot, 20-Pack — the ultimate hands-on STEM activity that blends art and engineering. Perfect for classrooms, makerspaces, and STEM clubs, this set lets students build their own vibrating robot artists that draw colorful patterns as they move!
Each Art Bot Kit introduces key engineering concepts like balance, weight distribution, and motor mechanics through fun, interactive experimentation. Young inventors will assemble a simple motor-powered robot, adjust its design, and explore how different configurations change its movement and artistic style. As they test and tweak, students gain a deeper understanding of how engineers use offset weights to control vibration in everything from cell phones to industrial machinery.
Watch your Art Bots dance, spin, and swirl across the page. Every creation is a unique, wobbly masterpiece!
Key Features:
- Includes all materials to build 20 complete Art Bots
- Ideal for STEM classrooms, camps, and group projects
- Teaches real-world engineering and physics concepts through play
- Encourages creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork
