Elastic Power

Rubber Band Energy

Build rubber band powered vehicles and mechanisms and learn about potential and kinetic energy. Discover fun mechanical applications for simple rubber bands! You can assemble 11 models including a sail car, helicopter, three race cars, yo-yo, spinning top, trolley, catapult, wind-up paddleboat, and motor bike.

Design your own vehicle with a rubber band under the hood. Conduct experiments with your models to learn the physical science principles of elasticity, potential energy, and kinetic energy.

The 48-page color instruction book included in this kit gives illustrated step-by-step instructions for building the models to help children learn through play.

The 170 building pieces included in this set are compatible with those in all Thames & Kosmos Construction Series kits, Physics Series kits, Wind Power, and Hydropower kits.
