Get GEARED Up for Learning Fun!
Crank up the creativity and explore the power of gears with the K'NEX STEM Explorations Gears Set! Perfect for budding engineers aged 6+ (with a little help) or 8+ independently, this engaging educational set brings science, technology, engineering and maths to life in a hands-on and exciting way.
Children can build three dynamic, geared models—a crank fan, a car window, and an egg beater—while discovering important STEM principles like gear ratios, rotational speed, and mechanical advantage. Ideal for use in schools or home learning environments, this kit encourages problem-solving, logical thinking, and fine motor skills, all wrapped up in fun, constructive play.
Plus, extra instructions and extension experiments are available online to keep the learning going long after the last gear is snapped into place. Whether used in classrooms, STEM clubs, or creative home spaces, this set is a brilliant way to inspire a love of building and learning.
