Product Information

I think tower engineering challenges are so fun because it helps kids think about material science, structure, forces, bracing, material availability. I’m sure there is more benefits I’m not listing, but that is what comes to mind right away.

In fact, if the Squigz species was given a scientific name, it would most certainly be called Suctionus Constructionus.) Squigz Starter Set includes: 2 Orange Pips, 8 Blue Doodles, 4 Green Grippities, 4 Purple Yoinks, 2 Yellow Skooches, 2 Red Gobnobs, 1 Dark Blue Wonkity, 1 White Zorbit The fact that Squigz connect through suction opens up a whole slew of fun science porjects you can do with them. For example, you can investigate why types of surfaces Squigz can hold on to and discover they need to be smooth, non-porous surfaces. Or your could learn about suction as you research animals that use suction in everyday life. OR you could build a game! There are so many ideas out there! Force and pressure are related to each other through the area. Force = Pressure/Area. You can measure the diameter of the Squigz, calculate the area, and turn it into a force using a pressure change of 1 atmosphere (using the conversion that 1 atmosphere is 101325 Pascals). 4.Look at how the suction power of Squigz is changed in air, water, oil, and more.But in all honesty, it’s better to let your kids think up the ideas. My girls came up with the slapping game, and I would have never thought of it, but it even got to us drawing out point areas on the floor so you could score points and defend.

We have so many play based engineering challenges, and with almost all of them the tower inevitably comes up. The other pressure is the pressure inside the cup. When you heat the air in the cup it moves around faster, and is less dense. Because the cup is still open to the regular air, though, it is still at atmospheric pressure, it’s just hotter, and weighs less. What I can share is our grandson got lost in play. Absolutely wonderful! And, he shared his items with his little brother in play. Nothing better. This toy required focus and intention which were both in action during play.

The Squigz Starter Set is fun, durable, simple, and educational. We think it makes a great addition to any playroom.
