Toy Solar and Dynamo Vehicle POWERplus Grasshopper

Sun or muscle power? You choose how to drive this amazing hybrid car! POWERplus® Grasshopper is an exciting DIY educational kit from the POWERplus® Junior line that teaches children about solar and mechanical energy in the most engaging way – through independent building and play!

This unique set allows young designers to assemble their own vehicle, which can be powered in two ecological ways: using the includedsolar panel (when the sun is shining) or by vigorously turning the crank of the built-ingenerator (dynamo). Watch together as your Grasshopper moves forward or backward, drawing only on pure energy - without batteries or mains power!

Main Benefits of the POWERplus® Grasshopper Kit:

• 2in1 Hybrid Drive: Runs on solar energy OR mechanical energy generated by a dynamo - provides fun regardless of the weather or time of day!
• STEM Education through Practice: The child learns in a tangible way how solar panels, power generators (dynamos), electric motors and simple drive mechanisms work.
• Development of Key Skills: Building a model from scratch exercises manual skills, precision, concentration, the ability to read instructions and spatial thinking.
• 100% Ecological Fun: Promotes interest in renewable energy sources and shows that playing with electronics does not require batteries.
• Satisfaction of Creation: The joy and pride of building a working, moving vehicle yourself.
• Movement in Both Directions: The built model can moveforward and backward.
• Part of the Educational Line: Part of the POWERplus® Junior series, created to teach children (8+) about green energy through play.

Build and Run Your Eco-Vehicle!

The set contains all the elements needed to build a Grasshopper car. After assembling, just expose it to the sun or turn the dynamo crank to see how the model starts to ride on a flat surface. The ability to choose the driving direction (front/back) further diversifies the fun.

Two Ways to Clean Energy (Sun or Dynamo):

• Solar Mode: On a sunny day, place the solar panel so that direct, bright light falls on it. The panel will convert solar energy into electricity to drive the motor.
• Dynamo Mode: When there is no sun or you are indoors, just vigorously turn the crank of the built-in generator to generate electricity and set the car in motion with the power of your own muscles!

Easy Assembly (Do It Yourself!):

The "Do It Yourself" (DIY) kit is intended for children aged8 years and older (adult supervision recommended). Elements made of plastic are designed to be easily connected, usually by pressing, without the use of glue or special tools (although it may be necessary, for example, to separate the parts from the frames). Detailed, multilingual step-by-step instructions (with pictures) facilitate the assembly process.
