Blast Off to Learning Fun
In addition to the excitement and entertainment it provides,
rocketry also has significant educational value. Model rockets
transform kids into amateur rocket scientists, encouraging them
to think about how the rockets work. Rocket building teaches kids
the basics of propulsion, flight, and aerodynamics, and can help
foster an early interest in science and engineering. Some
painting, gluing and sanding are required for the 220 Swift.
Quality Estes body tubes, laser cut wood fins, molded plastic
nose cone and self-stick decals make for an afternoon of building
enjoyment with this Skill Level 1 kit.
