POWERplus Monkey 12-in-1 Solar STEM Robot Kit

12-in-1 Buildable Models

The POWERplus Junior Monkey set allows you to build up to 12 different working models from one kit. Designs include animals, robots, and vehicles, offering a wide range of building experiences.

Solar Powered Operation

The included solar panel converts sunlight into electrical energy to power a motor. This enables movement of the models without the need for batteries under suitable light conditions.

Hydraulic Motion System

The kit also demonstrates basic hydraulic principles using tubes and fluid (water). Pressure applied through the system helps transfer force and activate different moving parts.

How the Models Work

Solar energy powers the motor, while hydraulic components transfer force to create motion. This combination allows models to perform actions such as moving parts, lifting, or walking depending on the structure.

STEM Learning Through Practice

This kit introduces children to renewable energy, simple mechanics, and fluid-based motion systems. It supports hands-on learning through building, testing, and experimentation.

Skill Development

Building the models helps improve fine motor skills, logical thinking, spatial awareness, and problem-solving abilities. It also encourages creativity and technical exploration.
