Science Kits: H-Racer H2

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Your child can be miles ahead on technology with this racer kit. This particular car is the miniature of the real cars being developed for the future. H-Racer, a fuel cell car, has a fuel cell system connected to the electric motor, onboard hydrogen fuel tank and hydrogen refueling system linking the car’s onboard fuel tank to an external hydrogen refueling station. Since the car is as small as your palm, the car is totally safe. It only uses a small amount of hydrogen at a time to fuel the car. The best thing about this car is that it runs on clean, renewable fuel. The fuel is produced by a miniature sun-powered hydrogen refueling station that changes water to hydrogen.

I could not get the recommended ages for this particular toy. But for more information on this remarkable science kit, it can be found on the Discover This website. It has a large number of other science toys that look fascinating to me. Kids would love these toys.

Imaginarium Classic Train Table

When I first looked at this particular toy set, I expected it to be for older kids. However, it’s for the 3-6 crowd. This is a 100 piece wooden train set with the table. One of the best features of this is that it’s simple and easy to clean. That’s a seller right there. And it’s a Toys R Us exclusive toy so that will be the only place you can get one. The set has a double sided play board so that you can have a green looking side and one with graphics. The set comes with an airport tunnel with sound and working door, bridge with light and sound, fueling station with working sign, mountain tunnel with sound, a working crane with magnetic grapple and a roundhouse with doors that open and working turntable. The great part about it is that your child’s other wooden train sets or trains with a magnet can work with this table.

Included in this set are: 23 ft of track, fueling station, airport tunnel, bridge, crane, tunnel, roundhouse, turntable, play board, train table, 4 people, 4 street signs, 7 trees, 4 street lamps, 1 helicopter, 1 truck, 1 car, 8 train cars, and 12 pieces of cargo. When the kids are finished playing, all the accessories can be stored in the two large drawers of the table.

Recommended for ages 3-6. 6 button cell batteries are needed (included). Assembly is required.
