Catapult Kit, 30-Pack – Bulk STEM Kits – Build 30 Mini Catapults, Complete STEM Project Kit for Classrooms and Groups, Ages 8+

Such a great stem craft! The kids were so jazzed about what they created and were delighted when they were able to see their cubes ejected from the catapult! Definite repurchase when I need something like this again.

Our kids loved putting these together! They do have to be separated into individual groups but other than that; loads of fun for our kiddos and their friends!

Excellent for teaching physics in a fun, hands-on way. Bulk kit means no need for extra materials or prep. Our toddler LOVES launching the foam blocks at everything. I like the way my son's pre-school has made a slight modification of a plastic spoon instead of the cup.

Purchased this for a Cub Scout banquet and the scouts got to build and then use them. I also plan to use these in my science class. The only thing I disliked was that I wish the directions were a little better and maybe more than one copy of them since a set of 30.

Seller is great to work with and very responsive to questions. Kit is complete with instructions and easy to assemble. Once we built the design by instructions, students were required to choose a way to “improve the design” - categories included more power, launch higher, launch farther etc.

I used it for the kids that I worked with last school year as a hands on activity and they loved it that even some of the other kids in a different group wanted to make one. It’s something quick and easy if you want to keep your kids entertained. Only draw back on my end is that I got lost with the directions due to reader error 😅😅

This STEM catapult set goes together quickly and easily. When my husband used it once, it held together. On the 2nd try, the double sided tape released from the plastic cup. The cup was easy to stick back onto the stick, but shouldn't come off so easily. For that reason, we give it 4 stars instead of 5. One modification I think we'll try before using this at a Family Reunion for a kid's craft is to drill a hole in one end of half of the tongue depressors and in all of the cups. Then we can put a brad in the hole to hold the cup more securely on place. We'll also bring marshmallows to supplement the foam blocks. Actually, I think super glue would work even better than the included foam tape or my brad idea. This will be a fun activity at our reunion.

My students loved making these.
