K'NEX Bridges
Design and Build World Structures
The K'NEX Bridges Sets are versatile, reusable fun that make teaching bridges with popsicle sticks, toothpicks and glue ancient history. When a toothpick bridge fails under tension and compression, the opportunity to learn from the experience is gone forever. With K'NEX Bridges Sets, students design and build bridges, test them for strength and stability, and then modify them based on points of stress and failure. All this in a matter of minutes, rather than the hours it takes for glue to dry. And K'NEX pieces can be used over and over again!
Bridges and structural design are taught routinely in elementary through college classes in the U.S. and abroad. K'NEX Bridges Sets are designed and packaged to allow educators the greatest flexibility as they plan a bridges or architecture curriculum with hands-on experiences for students.
