Klutz Lego Gear Bots

LEGO bricks bring science to life with LEGO Gear Bots! Build 8 different action-packed STEM-driven models that move with 62 LEGO elements, such as DJ Bubbles (an octopus spinning records,) a pterodactyl, a yeti, and much more! Kinetic sculptures, or automata, are mechanically engineered toys that move when you crank the handle on the side. They move through a series of axles, cams, and cranks that work like the pistons in an engine. Learn about cams, cranks, axles, and other mechanical engineering fundamentals with real-life applications in each model. Each model includes a papercraft character that you fold and link with LEGO elements to bring your model to life.

This set encourages open-ended creativity and hands-on learning, leaving you with skills to build on and unlimited opportunities for fun while integrating STEM fundamentals. Don't know where to get started? Don't worry, the kit contains super clear instructions and everything you need to jump-start your model making fun!
