I Fall To Pieces….
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
And you get to learn human anatomy by putting me back together again. I'm a hard-plastic, full-color human male torso, 10-1/2" tall, with 15 pieces, including my torso. The heuristic fun is fitting my stomach, liver, heart, aorta, intestines, lungs, liver, spleen and other parts back inside. Plus you get to view a bunch of muscles on my right side, which somebody seems to have skinned for your educational benefit.

Hydraulics Made Easy
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
Cleverly made, and mighty heuristic, too. You pick from a variety of Pathfinders hydraulic-system teaching kits made up of unfinished wood, transparent tubing, and plastic syringes, which power the movement. The finished mini excavator will stand approx 10” tall on a 7-1/8” x 3-1/4” base, with a 5” x 2-1/4” claw, and (4) syringes. The mini scissors lift has a 9-1/2” x 3-1/2” base and a 3-3/8” x 7” platform and a single syringe. For someone entranced by hydraulics, or for a whole classroom of students, there’s the 4-In-1 kit, with the excavator and scissors lift, plus a cherry picker and platform lifter. Very clever teaching tools for ages 8 and up.

Build Your Own Crystal Radio
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
A good basic kit with everything you need to build a very simple crystal radio. This is not hi-tech hi-fi. Geared for ages eight and up, it is a complete kit with wonderfully straight forward instructions which walk the experimenter through hooking up tuning needle, crystal diode, and earphone, and experimenting to find useful antennas. (Sorry wire coil is already wound.) Excellent education, recreation and discovery device all at the same time. A simple kit with hours of fun in it.

Geyser Gonna Love This
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
The geyser's little helper: you screw this 6" threaded and capped plastic tube onto a 2-liter plastic bottle of diet pop (not included) and fill it with Mentos® mints (included!). Pull the trigger pin and the mints drop while you watch it erupt in 25 feet of scientific deliciosity. The instructions say to select "an outdoor location," but we think that takes half the fun out of it.
