Our models were designed to develop critical skills your child will need to succeed: self-learning, confidence in their own abilities and high self-esteem, and a deeper understanding of science in the context of the world in which we live.
At AristoCraft we have created a real hands-on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) educational program that integrates physical and electronic principles with the self-assembly of dynamic wooden models.
Each model is one of a kind, and based upon its own law of physics. Students are entertained and empowered through building each model, as they grasp that science surrounds us and is not only in our textbooks.
The kit includes three color-coded booklets with full pedagogical content that makes self-learning easy:
1. A brown booklet with step-by-step assembly instructions, including detailed illustrations.
2. A gray booklet that explains the principle of physics on which your model is based, and its uses in the world around us. The content is user friendly and easy to understand.
3. A green exercise booklet with questions to test your child and improve their understanding.
AristoCraft's models and their pedagogical guide qualify as Project Based Learning, which is considered to be one of the most effective methods of learning and remembering new material.
A leading principle in our design of AristoCraft’s models is KISS - Keep It Short and Simple. In practice, this means that all our models can be assembled in 1 to 2.5 hours at the most, without the help of an adult, and with accompanying content that is clearly written and easy to understand. Our team’s specialty is simplifying physics concepts through building a playable dynamic model, with short and simple explanations.
Each AristoCraft kit was tested by hundreds of young minds and is guaranteed to be great. The sense of accomplishment of assembling a complete model will boost your child’s confidence and bolster their self-esteem. These sentiments will encourage your child’s continued learning, and propel them to advance their skills.
The wonders of physics come to life in our models, inspiring your child’s interest in science. After assembling their first AristoCraft model, 86% of the kids in our pilot indicated they’d rather assemble another one than watch their favorite TV show or play their favorite game.
