BUILD IT. COUNT DOWN. LAUNCH IT 10 FEET: Kids build their own realistic rocket and durable launcher from precision-cut wooden parts — then press the red launch button and watch it blast up to 10 feet into the air. No batteries, no electricity — pure mechanical action. Winner of the 2025 Parents Choice Award. Designed for kids ages 6 to 12.
REAL ROCKET SCIENCE — SERIOUSLY: Every launch teaches Newton’s Third Law of Motion — action and reaction — in the most tangible way possible. Kids also discover how rocket propulsion works, what forces keep a rocket on course, and why aerodynamic design matters. These are the same principles behind actual space missions, learned through building and launching.
SAFE FOR INDOOR LAUNCHING: The rocket’s soft foam tip makes it safe to launch indoors — no need for a backyard or outdoor space. Kids can blast off in the living room, bedroom, or classroom without any risk to people or furniture. The launcher is stable, the rocket is lightweight, and the thrill is completely real.
STEM SKILLS BUILT INTO EVERY STEP: Assembling the rocket and launcher teaches structural engineering, spatial reasoning, and mechanical thinking before a single launch takes place. Kids follow illustrated step-by-step instructions to complete the build independently — developing patience, precision, and confidence in their own ability to make things work.
RELAUNCHABLE, REPLAYABLE, ENDLESSLY FUN: This isn’t a one-shot toy. Kids reload, relaunch, and experiment — adjusting angle, force, and technique to see how high and how far the rocket goes each time. Every launch is a new experiment. Every tweak teaches something new about physics, force, and flight.
THE GIFT THAT WINS EVERY ROOM: An award-winning birthday or holiday gift that combines the satisfaction of building with the thrill of launching — a combination that earns real, repeated engagement. Perfect for curious boys and girls aged 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 years. From Smartivity — trusted by families in 24 countries.
