Ages 8+ years
This timeless scientific instrument has been reimagined in a fresh, new design. Experiment with the Gyroscope to learn about the physics of motion, forces and gravity. Learn about gyroscopic forces, and see and feel them in action. Have fun getting your Gyroscope to do classic physics tricks. Make the Gyroscope balance on a tabletop, on a stand and on a string. Spin the Gyroscope inside the included clear plastic sphere, and see and feel the forces acting on the sphere, which doubles as a storage case for your Gyroscope.
The Gyroscope by Thames & Kosmos includes a 3-inch-diameter, plastic and metal Gyroscope; a 30-inch string; and an instruction manual. The clear plastic sphere functions as a stand and a storage case.
This toy contains small parts that present a choking hazard and is not suitable for children under the age of 3 years.
