## Description

Product Description Thames & Kosmos Physics Workshop From the Manufacturer Almost everyone has heard of a chemistry set. But until this kit was introduced, a physics set was almost unheard of. Physics is an essential science for everyone, and this kit provides a comprehensive explanation of mechanical physics. Through building 36 models and conducting subsequent experiments with the models, you will learn the fundamental laws of mechanical physics. Start by building small models, such as a fixed pulley, to learn about basic forces and simple machines. Then, work your way up to more complex machines, such as a pendulum clock, to learn more advanced concepts like work and centripetal force. This hands-on approach is both fun and effective because the principles of physics are demonstrated right in front of you.

Review: Super excellent customer service - I ordered this for use in homeschooling two girls, ages 11 and 9. We just started using it, and so far, it looks like it will be a valuable component of my physics curriculum. I do the think the experiments tend to build upon each other in some place and thus require somewhat of a consecutive order. However, I'm sure a person can pick through here and there if one had the time. There are other, more thorough reviews on the structure of it. I mainly wanted to say that, in the kit we received, the motor box (an essential part of the kit) was not working correctly, as the motor was spinning but not fully engaging with the axle inserted into the side of the box. I simply called the phone number, which I found on their site, within one minute was connected with a LIVE ENGLISH SPEAKING PERSON, briefly explained the problem, gave my address, and should receive a new part within a week. Where do you get customer service like THAT anymore? So I thought I would take some of the time that COULD have been spent getting through an automated phone system, hassling with an outsourced customer service rep who, after arguing with me for 10 minutes, would tell me to return the kit at my inconvenience... and spend that time letting potential customers know that this is a quality product and a good company to deal with. Edit: Well, after looking again at the other reviews, maybe I should expound a little. My girls LOVE building the structures, and so far have had no problem doing that, by themselves, from the detailed pictures provided. I have been reading the lessons in the manual to them, and honestly, this workshop, including the accompanying narrative, could be an entire curriculum in and of itself. I had compared it to the physics textbook we have been working in, and this workshop provides excellent coverage of the physics subject. It is NOT just a bunch of experiments. The manual thoroughly explains all of the concepts involved, in very understandable language and an engaging manner. As a longtime homeschooler, I would consider this to very usable as a curriculum, especially for hands-on learners, and a lot of fun, as well.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this kit be appropriate for a 13 y.o.?**
A: Yes

**Q: have the instructions gotten any better since the reviews from 2008-9?**
A: No! The instructions are not any better and many of the projects you build require extra parts that aren't in the kit.  Ridiculous for the amount of money they charge!

**Q: I am going to bring this overseas as a gift to my family. Would you please tell me how big is the box and how much does it weigh? Thank you.**
A: The box is 14" L x 11" W x 3" D.  It weighs less than a pound.

**Q: Can a replacement manual be purchased separately?  My grandson misplaced his before we got started .**
A: Hi. On the Thanes & Kosmos website there are sample manuals that you can view. You want to make an inquiry on their website about getting a new manual. Thanks!

Good for children

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lots of educational fun
*by M***N on February 22, 2016*

I purchased this for my six year old son for Christmas. He has a large interest in physics and loves watching youtube videos on the subject. He absolutely loved this kit. The kit has a lot of activities and comes with nearly every thing you need for each. My only gripe is that the instruction booklet is a little vague on how to put each one together. It contains nice little tidbits of information on what each demonstration is about but sort of skips steps or just shows the finished item when it comes to construction. This did not stop us from building any of them but it would have been quicker to set up if the instructions were a little more clear.
