DIY Basketball Catapult Kit

Aim, launch, and score while exploring physics with this hands-on STEM basketball game. Build an adjustable wooden catapult and miniature basketball court, then experiment with launch angles, force, and trajectory to find the perfect shot. Adjusting the catapult and testing different approaches turns each basket into an opportunity to observe cause and effect and refine a solution. The build-and-play experience seamlessly develops engineering skills, understanding of physics, spatial reasoning, measurement, fine motor control, experimentation, and problem-solving while combining scientific discovery with active basketball-themed fun. Includes the catapult components, court, backboard, basket, 3 balls, stickers, and illustrated instructions.
