JustPlumCrazy Brings back memories - This brings back memories from my younger days. My parents had on the mantle and I would love to swing the balls and watch it. This is definitely an oldie but a goodie and is a great gift for everyone on your holiday list. Disclosure: I was sent a sample in exchange for an honest review. All opinions shared are mine and mine alone.
theteacherswife Looks amazing in our collection! - My son is wildly obsessed with Newton's Cradle so I was excited to have the opportunity to review this product! I highly value educational products -especially ones that are fun like this one! Kids can't resist the urge to make it swing! The set takes only a few moments to put together out of the packaging, and it is SO incredibly reflective and shiny at first I thought the base was made of metal! (It's plastic.) It's a really great set though and larger than I was expecting! Definitely a great gift for kids and adults alike! It will make a stunning new addition to our office.

About this item
Highlights
- Learn about Newton’s Third Law of Motion: For every action, there is an opposite and equal reaction.
- Watch how momentum and energy are transferred from one side of Newton’s Cradle to the other.
- Observe how potential (“stored”) energy becomes kinetic energy.
- Observe what happens when you change the combination of balls you swing.
- Try simple experiments with coins to demonstrate Newton’s First Law of Motion: An object at rest tends to stay at rest; an object in motion tends to stay in motion.
