The Speedway with Catapult is an advanced STEM system that allows children to explore motion, speed, and force through real-world experiences. The most impressive element is the launch ramp that catapults the balls into the air and directs them into the funnel.
The balls then travel through speed tubes, curves, and breakers as the child watches their motion change. At the end, the sound funnel creates a clear and satisfying finale.
This set allows for real physics experiments - the child tests how height, slope, and force affect the outcome.
This is one of the richest and most dynamic systems that combines motion, sound, and construction into one experience.
This set is especially valuable for educators because it allows for working with real physics principles through play. Suitable for individual work, kindergarten and children with special needs, as it offers clear visual feedback and control over the action.
How to play
The child builds the track, adjusts the pipes and uses the catapult to launch the balls. Observes their movement and experiments with different structures.
Why children like it
Children like the dynamics – they launch the ball, see how it flies, accelerates and passes through the entire structure.
