Visualizing the Molecular World!
Our mission is to help youngsters visualize the wonders of the
molecular world. This world, though too small to see with our naked
eyes, is actually where the reactions take place that control every
aspect of our lives. Visualizing this world at a young age will
enable kids to develop a deeper understanding of the scientific
processes they learn in the future.
Building Blocks
Children have a natural tendency to want to build things. Building
toys have been the best, and most popular, toys for children
throughout the ages. Why can't this natural love for building be
channeled into helping them understand the physical world? They can
build it, molecule by molecule. Atoms and molecules, the building
blocks of the universe, can be modeled with simple ball and strut
systems. The ball and strut system from Zometool, Inc. is perfectly
suited for this use.
