How can you make two cascading flower streams that are the same height? How can you build horizontally and keep the structure sound? These are all practical engineering problems that children face and solve while letting their creativity shine and building a garden overflowing with beauty. Children can experiment with symmetry, patterns, and choice making. They can see how their design decisions are put into motion with the cause and effect action of manually spinning the gears. Assembling the garden bed in endless combinations, determining how and what to build, constructing, testing, and tweaking are all STEM-related activities. Add the included stickers to the gears, butterflies, and more to showcase your green-thumb talent. And with the design element of this set, arts & design are as much a part of the planning as the science behind it. For ages 4+.

Whether you like a very orderly garden with matching flowers arranged in regular patterns or wild flowers growing everywhere, this set has what you need to make your garden complete.

Ozobot Bit’s ability to learn your programs, and then play them back is a big game changer to how young minds play and learn. OzoBlockly – a web-based visual editor – offers five step up modes from icon-based to loops, logic and equation blocks to appeal to young kids and even to challenge the seasoned programmers.

Measuring slightly over an inch, Ozobot Bit is one of the world’s smallest smart robot toys.What does it do? Ozobot can see colors, follow lines and detect intersections on shapes you draw on paper and a digital screen. Twin micro-motors and a friction drivetrain deliver quiet and precise movements, while Ozobot‘s sensors scan the surface for color variances – thus interpreting an actual code, created by your child. Ozobot Bit’s built-in LiPo battery provides quick recharge via a micro-USB port and delivers over an hour of continuous action on a single charge.
Now that’s a smart toy.

Adam Equipment CBC Counting Scale8. Adam Equipment CBC Counting Scale

Price: $275.00 – $552.50

  • Counting scale provides precision weighing and counting results
  • Stainless steel 275 x 225mm (W x D) weighing pan is corrosion resistant
  • Powered by the built-in rechargeable battery or included AC adapter
  • An optional audible alarm notifies the user during check-weighing mode if the load is under, over, or within the pre-set weight limit
  • Internal data accumulation streamlines multi-step weighing and counting tasks

The Adam Equipment CBC counting scale offers precision weighing results, and features a stainless steel weighing pan that is corrosion resistant and easy to clean. The scale can be operated using AC power or the built-in rechargeable battery, for up to 90 hours, offering full mobility in the field and when a power supply is hard to find. The auto off function can be enabled to power off the scale automatically after periods of inactivity to conserve power. The scale has an automatic external calibration function to ensure repeatable measurements. The integrated RS-232 port connects to a printer or PC for manual or automatic data recording with text in English, French, German, or Spanish.

This scale weighs has a backlit liquid crystal screen that clearly displays weight, unit weight, and piece count. The scale performs weighing, check-weighing, parts-counting, and percentage-weighing tasks. During parts-counting or check-weighing tasks, a guide on the screen and an optional audible alarm notifies the user if the load is under, over, or at the pre-set target. The scale calculates weight or piece-count totals to streamline multi-step tasks. Adjustable nonslip feet provide level measurements and stability, so the scale will not tip under eccentric loads.

Scales and balances are measuring instruments used to determine the mass of an object. Mechanical balances are the simplest type of balance, and use a lever and slide to indicate the measurement. Conventional balances are commonly used in offices, the jewelry industry, and in kitchens, and display results digitally, but are less precise than analytical balances. Analytical balances measure to a high degree of precision and accuracy (0.0001g or better), and display results digitally. These balances have a cover with doors to prevent dust and airflow from affecting the measurement. Moisture balances analyze moisture content in a material sample, using infrared or halogen heat sources to dry the sample and then calculate the moisture content from the before- and after-drying weight, and display results digitally, on the balance, or transfer the information for display on a computer.

Adam Equipment manufactures balances, scales, and related accessories for laboratory, educational, industrial, retail, and medical applications. The company, which was founded in the United Kingdom in 1972 and has an office in Danbury, CT, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9001:2008 standards.

Calibration weights are used to measure the weight or mass of an object using a balance or scale, or to calibrate other weights or instruments. Calibration weights can be certified or uncertified. Certified weights meet strict guidelines for accuracy and can usually be recertified. Certified weights are used in labs where a high degree of accuracy and repeatability is required. Uncertified weights are used where a lower degree of accuracy is required, including student laboratories, rough weighting operations, and measuring force. Hooked and slotted weights are often used to measure pressure, torque, and tensile strength, and to demonstrate basic laws of physics. Calibration weights differ from lab weights, which are general purpose weights used to hold an object in place, similar to a paperweight.

Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology.

Ohaus manufactures scales and balances for laboratory, educational, retail, food, and jewelry applications. The company, founded in 1914, is headquartered in Parsippany, NJ.
