Smartivity Craft Kit Robot Hand for Elementary School Lower Ages 8 and Up Students, Grades,

[A craft kit for building and learning the basics of science, perfect for free summer research] "Freely moving robot hand" is a DIY STEAM educational toy that allows you to learn about the structure of hands and machines by assembling and playing with it yourself. There are many tasks that you can try using the completed robot hand, and you can learn concentration through the process of ``creating'' and ``playing''. The child's interest in the structure of the hand is heightened through the making process, and by actually experimenting with his or her own hand, the child's interest and understanding deepen. For example, taking on the challenge of tackling various tasks without being able to use your thumbs can help you develop the ability to deal with difficulties, and it also gives you an opportunity to learn that there are people in various situations. Through this experience, you will be able to develop compassion and empathy for others, and by broadening your horizons, you will be able to develop into a rich person who can play an active role in the future. In addition, the completed robot hand can be used like your own hand and can be moved freely, so you can think of your own ways to play and have fun devising ways to play, increasing your imagination and creativity. 　 [Develop creativity and thinking skills through play] By creating a robot hand from a combination of rubber bands and parts, children can understand and experience engineering gimmicks. By assembling it yourself from scratch, you can train your thinking skills, calculation skills and imagination to design everything from start to finish. In addition, by using your fingertips while playing, you can train your concentration and ability to control your fingertips, and develop your logical thinking ability and the ability to think for yourself and get things done, which are essential for learning programming, which requires steady, detailed work. The screen-free, non-digital experience of thinking about, working with, and completing an assembly-type DIY kit on your own will give children the joy of "I did it!" and a sense of accomplishment, giving them confidence. [Experience and learn about anatomy] The structure is designed to replicate the structure of the human hand, so you can learn not only engineering content but also anatomy. By assembling a DIY kit that recreates bones, joints, and ligaments, children will understand the anatomy of the hand and develop an interest in the human body. The completed robot hand can be moved in the same way as a human hand, so you can learn about the structure and mechanical structure of the hand while playing with it, and you can simulate conditions such as ligament tears that are difficult to experience in real life. Learning while playing allows children to become familiar with anatomy, and learning about the relationship between engineering and anatomy will draw out children's intellectual curiosity and expand their horizons. Smartivity is an assembly-type educational toy that has passed the strict standards of each country and has been proven to be physically safe in addition to scientific tests. The MDF parts used are safe and do not splinter, so you can concentrate on playing without worrying about getting injured. We use strong and long-lasting materials to ensure that you can enjoy it for a long time, and it is an educational toy that is kind to both children and the earth, and is not just about assembling, but also incorporates various ways to play and many learning elements. [An immersive play experience expands your curiosity] This is an experiential learning kit that will create an opportunity for you to become interested in engineering through play and will serve as the foundation for future STEAM learning. By assembling a robot hand, students can learn about gear mechanisms and link mechanisms, and by learning about the role of gears and the workings of gear trains (structures that combine two or more gears), children will become more interested in familiar machines and structures, and learn how to ask questions on their own that will lead to further learning. STEAM is an educational concept that combines the initial letters of five words: Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics, and was born in a time when the world was undergoing major changes due to the influence of AI (artificial intelligence) and technological innovation. By learning these things in total, it is an educational method that cultivates the basic skills of IT skills and technological development that will be essential in the future world, and acquires the ability to think for oneself and the ability to derive answers theoretically.
