This product has been in existence for a long time, but this new set of projects has been put together in a new way in a set that gives older children an opportunity to learn how to create something new and exciting. It contains everything the child needs to build projects. Learning to build and putting pieces together, learning how to add electrical parts, and other specific technical products provide the child with a challenge and interesting activity. The kit includes electric motor, battery boxes, battery connectors, motor pulley, propellers, switches, magnets, tubing, glue and wooden components and many other aspects. Batteries are not included. This is a product that will challenge your child.
This is the original inventor center, known as the "Hovercraft." There are three construction products in one, Electric Buggy, Hover Craft and Propeller Car.The hovercraft and buggy were originally conceived by a company called Entertaining Solutions in 1998 and marketed under the brand ‘Edu – Kits’ and did not do very well in the retail market. Ross Ainsworth from Interplay [U.K.] Ltd took the company over in 2001, re worked the products and re branded and re launched in Nov 2001. In 2002 he developed two smaller kits – Trip Wire Alarm and Prop Car and at the same time developed a ‘combo’ kit called ‘Inventor Centre’ that included three of the smaller kits. Last year Tree Toys took over the manufacture of the line from it’s factory’s in Taiwan.
