Stacking Rocket with Flying Ball
Your little astronaut will love playing with this delightful rocket that demonstrates several physical forces through play.Â
There's a fan at the base of the rocket. When you place the ball on the fan and stack one rocket piece after another on top, the ball will be blown upward. The upward airflow will make the ball float right at the edge of the top part, but it won’t rise any higher than that. When you place the rocket’s nose cone on top of the structure, the air can no longer rise, and the ball will fall back down to the bottom.Â
This simple play with air lift, gravity, and mass gives your child a fun introduction to physics, and the rocket opens up a whole world of imagination.
Your child can make the ball rise and fall again and again, simply by putting the top on and taking it off.Â
The rocket pieces are numbered, so your child can also work on their counting skills while playing.Â
The rocket’s fan turns off automatically after 5 minutes.Â
What makes this product special
Do you know what STEM means, and why most kids learn better when school subjects mix and mingle?
Read all about STEM, STEAM, and STREAMright here on our blog.Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with
