Power House Kit

Sustainable energy is certain to be an even hotter topic by the time today’s kids come of age than it is now. Give your older children a head start on understanding this crucial subject with the Power House Kit ($138) featuring 70 experiments and 20 building projects. Construct a model house powered by solar panels and a windmill, with a greenhouse and desalination system. Build an electric car, make a solar cooker, and even harvest the energy of plants. The experiments follow an adventurous storyline of building a house and living on a remote island, with all your needs supplied by the power of the sun and wind.
