Water play meets STEM exploration with this innovative Pump Works set, one of our best-selling products. Pump Works introduces kids to the basics of hydraulics and fluid dynamics through play. This set includes various pumps, tubes, and connectors, so kids can experiment with water movement and pressure. It is ideal for STEM and hands-on learning. Kids experience the thrill of engineering by constructing a series of pumps and tubes. Adding water shows them how the pump action works, which in turn sparks an understanding of physics ideas like motion and gravity. Pump Works promotes learning fun for all ages, as older children enjoy a self-guided experience. Toddlers and preschoolers can experiment with water in a controlled setting with educator guidance. Encourage discovery by asking open-ended questions like "How does the pump cause the water to flow?" and "Why does the water move through the tubes?" The Pump Works set includes:

• 16 chutes and connectors
• 25' of flexible, durable tubing
• Funnels
• Cups
• Pump, intake, and pump mount
• Steel tub

This kit requires assembly. Pump Works is appropriate for children ages 3 and older.
