Green Science: Aqua Robot

Build a clever aquatic robot and watch it paddle through the water using the power of the sun. The Aqua Robot uses a solar panel to power its motor in sunlight and can switch to battery power when sunlight is unavailable, making it a hands-on introduction to renewable energy, robotics, electricity, and mechanical engineering. Assembling and experimenting with the robot seamlessly develops problem-solving, logical thinking, fine motor skills, and scientific curiosity while demonstrating how different energy sources can power motion. Requires 1 AAA battery, which is not included, and a small crosshead screwdriver.
