Item Code : 66360

Description : Our Edx Education® Float or Sink Fun is a comprehensive classroom science set designed to introduce children to the principles of buoyancy and density. By utilizing a diverse array of geometric and sensory objects, this kit encourages children to predict, observe, and record an object’s ability to sink or float based on its physical attributes. Made in Taiwan, it provides an engaging, hands-on scientific experiment that turns water play into an interactive physics lab.

AGE
3 - 7 years
SET INCLUDES
78 pieces, including 1 sorting bowl, 1 tug, 8 wooden geo solids, 10 plastic hollow geo solids, 8 geo volume solids, 4 foam cubes, 4 plastic cubes, 6 translucent pattern blocks, 12 counters, 12 plastic stacking masses, 12 animal counters in different sizes, and an activity guide (with downloadable resources).
SIZE
The tug measures 14 x 8 x 4 cm; Package size is 38 x 29 x 9 cm
Scientific Inquiry & Hypothesizing
This set actively guides children through the scientific method by encouraging them to observe, predict, compare, and record results. Learners make hypotheses about which materials float or sink based on prior experience, drop them in water, and summarize their findings to discover how material, size, and weight affect buoyancy.
Versatile Geometric Exploration
Featuring multiple types of shapes—such as wooden solids, hollow plastic shapes, and foam cubes—the kit offers endless variables for testing. The plastic geo volume solids are uniquely hollow, allowing children to place other small items inside to observe how extra mass changes the object's ability to stay afloat.
Strategic Interactive Learning Games
The floating tug boat adds a layer of fun, game-based learning that develops hand-eye coordination and strategic thinking. Children can take turns placing animal counters or stacking masses onto the boat, building up the weight until the vessel capsizes, making collaborative group physics experiments exciting and memorable.
