Learning Resources Crashapult STEM Challenge, STEM Catapult Game, 13 Pieces, Ages 5+

Fun and kids enjoyed playing this!

I have an inhome daycare & my kids have so much fun with this. They work together to move the pieces around so the balls fly through the hoop.

Interesting set, it’s quite different to other toys we’ve come across. It encourages experimenting and learning through trial and error about how to lay out the pieces - experimenting by distance, speed, force and so on to help develop logic and basic physics skills. It’s easy to set up, just add stickers and some of the pieces slot together. The leaflet has layout patterns to give challenge ideas - perhaps a thicker booklet with more would have been good, but still it’s a fun and interesting way to explore and learn. The pieces are plastic, but very strong durable plastic and it seems to lasting well. 2 balls are included along with catapult, ring to shoot through, tunnel / funnel to shoot into and so on.

This is great. You can make different obstacles to try and get the ball thru. My grandkids, ages 5,6,7,9, and 11 had a ball. My son, 37, myself and my husband enjoyed it also. Worth buying. Hours of fun!

Supporting the science aspect of the STEM topics - the fundamentals of learning in primary age children. This fun catapult game from LEARNING RESOURCES really does make learning fun. Tested with a very enthusiastic 5 year old, we had fun constructing the set and playing with the catapult, with varying levels of success (Granny took longer to get the hung of it!). We particularly liked the funny eyes 👀 on the balls! The set appears quite durable- I would suggest it is suitable for classroom use. We have had a few LEARNING RESOURCES products and haven’t been disappointed. This set would make a great gift for younger primary school age children.
