Kidzrobotix: Money Bank Robot

Build your own robotic piggy bank and watch it gobble up your savings! Place a coin on the robot’s arm and an electrical circuit activates the motor, causing the mechanical arm to lift and the robot to swallow the coin into its storage compartment. The kit includes plastic body parts, a motor, wires, gears, screws, and detailed instructions. Building and operating the robot seamlessly introduces electrical circuits, robotics, mechanics, and engineering while encouraging problem-solving and an understanding of saving money. Requires 1 AA battery and a small crosshead screwdriver, which are not included.
