Get ready for an action-packed adventure in our Gravity Grand Prix course! In this thrilling unit, young racers will dive into the exciting world of potential and kinetic energy, using a complete Hot Wheels set as their playground. Through hands-on experiments and interactive challenges, kids will explore the science behind making those mini-cars zoom and soar. Inspired by the skills of real-life NASCAR drivers, they'll become engineers in training, tweaking variables to boost the distance their Hot Wheels travel with precision and flair. Science Spectacular Speedway is revved up and ready to ignite the spark of scientific curiosity in our young racers, just like the pros on the NASCAR track!
