Engineering for the future begins at home. With this kit, kids will
construct and experiment with a model house that demonstrates
different aspects of green architecture and sustainable building
design. What can solar cells be used for? What influence does
climate have on energy consumption? What are the benefits of a
green roof? Answers to these and many other exciting questions
about green energy technology and sustainable living become clear
as kids conduct the experiments and projects outlined in the fullcolour manual.
The house includes working models of a variety of real-life devices
used at home, including a solar panel, a home energy storage
battery, a model heat pump, LED lights, an electric lawn mower,
and more. As kids discover how to supply their model house with
renewable energy, they’ll learn all about clean forms of electricity,
thermodynamics, real-life green building practices, and how they can
make their own home more energy efficient.
• Easy-to-build, comprehensive system that’s great
for classrooms or large group presentations
• Hands-on projects and experiments bring relevant,
topical ideas and scienti昀椀c concepts to life
