## Overview

The Thames & Kosmos Kids First Robot Factory kit is an engaging STEM experiment set designed for children aged 5 and up. It includes large, easy-to-assemble plastic pieces and a battery-powered motor box to build 8 different motorized robot models. Guided by a 32-page illustrated storybook manual, kids develop fine motor skills, mechanical understanding, and problem-solving abilities through hands-on model building and experimentation.

## Description

Watch out — robots gone rogue! In this new adventure in the Kids First early engineering series, the Omega family takes a trip to a robot factory where the robots have gotten a little out of control. One by one, the wacky, motorized robots are fixed up and put back into working order, with the help of the Omegas — and you! As you follow along with the 32-page illustrated storybook manual, you’ll build working models of the eight different classic robots and experiment with them to see how each one uses the battery-powered motor, gears, and other mechanical parts to move its arms or legs in a different, funny, zany way. Through building and experimenting, kids get a unique look at how simple mechanical systems work. Large, cubic plastic building pieces make it easy for small hands to put the models together. Robot Factory provides an engaging way to teach simple engineering concepts to young children, allowing parents, teachers, and caregivers to lay the groundwork for strong STEM-related skills and comprehension at an early age. Model building and experiments develop fine motor skill, mechanical engineering skills, visual-spatial skills, and reasoning and concept development skills.

## Features

- Introductory mechanical engineering kit for ages five and up.
- A beautifully-illustrated storybook manual follows Ty and Karlie, two young engineers, as they help fix some wacky robots at the robot factory!
- Clear and detailed step-by-step assembly instructions guide children to build 8 motorized models of the rogue robots from the story.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The pieces in the kits are interchangeable?**
A: Hi there,

Many of our construction and engineering kits have interchangeable parts. Some of our Kids First kits include bulkier parts for younger children. Please contact support@thamesandkosmos.com for information about compatibility between parts in specific sets.

Kind regards,
Thames and Kosmos Technical Support

**Q: We are stuck on the cat. Is there a step by step video to build these robots? The directions don’t make sense and I’m an adult!**
A: Hi. I'm sorry to hear that you are stuck. While we don't have video instructions for this model, you can access the online manual (which allows you to zoom in and get a closer look) at https://thamesandkosmos.com/manuals/full/567014_Robot_Safari_Manual.pdf   

If you're still having trouble, please reach out to support@thamesandkosmos.com with some additional information (what step you're unsure about and a photo of your model) and we'll follow up with some troubleshooting for you.

**Q: Do these move on theirmi u own?  Or does the kid push it?**
A: In the box it includes a motor box, if you add batteries & assembled per instructions it will move on its own. Don't put it in water.

**Q: Are the batteries and motor supposed to get really hot when using for short periods of time? We took out the batteries but they were too hot to touch.**
A: Thank you for your question. The only time we've ever experienced this is when the end-user accidentally inserts the batteries in the wrong polarity, causing a short circuit. Please reach out to us via the Support tab on our website and a member of our Technical Support Team can follow up with you.
