How the New LEGO Gear Bots Kit Keeps Kids Engaged With Learning

Sep 27, 2020

You already know that the best activities can keep kids engaged for an entire afternoon. The new Klutz: LEGO Gear Bots kit fits the bill perfectly! Part craft and part builder set, it’s the STEM activity kit every child needs this fall to stay engaged with learning.

The Klutz: LEGO Gear Bots kit allows kids to build “kinetic sculptures,” which are toys that can be operated by cranking a handle.

Included in the box, your kids will find:

  • 62 LEGO elements to build eight different models such as:
    • DJ Bubbles (an octopus spinning records)
    • A pterodactyl
    • A yeti
    • A monkey
  • A 64-page book filled with building ideas, as well as exciting information about gear parts! Consider it their beginner’s guide to mechanical engineering.
  • 12 sheets of papercraft, which kids will attach to the LEGO model to top off their newly built characters.

When you’re looking for a STEM activity kit, you want one that will keep your kids engaged with learning. The silly and hilarious characters kids create with this kit make learning fun, and when they’re finished, your child will want to show off their newly-built machines and explain engineering basics to you!

Klutz: LEGO Gear Bots is designed for kids ages 8 and over.
