## Description

Product Description Alternative Energy and Environmental Science Original From the Manufacturer Power House: Sustainable Living in the 21st Century. Power House provides an engaging and thorough introduction to renewable energy sources and sustainable living, while teaching basic concepts in physical science. Through building a model house and 20 other energy related devices, you will learn about energy from the sun, wind, plants, and electrochemical reactions. you will find out how to transform, store, and use these forms of energy. This kit creatively integrates physical science lessons with the story of a group of young adults learning to live sustainably on a remote island. To survive, they must learn how to harness the power of the sun and the wind, and other natural resources. As you read their story, you work on the same projects along side them. Construct and experiment with a greenhouse. Collect the sun's rays to heat water. Make a solar cooker to heat food while learning about the principles of light. Desalinate water, plant cress, and make dried fruit. Learn how heat of evaporation provides cooling, conduct experiments about air humidity, and build a hygrometer, air conditioner, and refrigerator. Press sunflower seeds to extract oil and assemble an oil lamp. Generate electric current from sunlight, magnetic fields, and metals in acid. Galvanize a nail and split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Build a current indicator, electric and solar motors, a transfer switch, and a crane. Lift pencils with the sun and learn about levers. Build an electric car and a sail car, and learn how wings and sails transform energy. The full-color, 96-page manual guides your experiments.

Review: Too bad~~~ - I paid more than one hundred dollars on this toy, but when I received it, it looks very cheap, I mean the parts are made by cheap material and easy to broken; so I have return this toy already. Not recommend on this...
Review: This is very poorly done. - This story is long and boring and totally turned off my children and their friends. We got through a little bit of it and now I am labeled as the "boring dad." I am a Wind Power major and I expected significantly more out of this. The workmanship was poor and the styrofoam parts never fit right. Great idea but very poorly executed.

### ⭐ Too bad~~~
*by K***N on August 6, 2010*

I paid more than one hundred dollars on this toy, but when I received it, it looks very cheap, I mean the parts are made by cheap material and easy to broken; so I have return this toy already. Not recommend on this...

### ⭐⭐ This is very poorly done.
*by S***I on June 26, 2012*

This story is long and boring and totally turned off my children and their friends. We got through a little bit of it and now I am labeled as the "boring dad." I am a Wind Power major and I expected significantly more out of this. The workmanship was poor and the styrofoam parts never fit right. Great idea but very poorly executed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Science Fair 1st Place
*by D***D on May 12, 2007*

The hybrid vehicle was the topic for my daughter Gabrielle's Science Project. She was easily able to build the house and the project with very little help from me. With a little coaching on the project and a little direction she successfully won a 1st Place in her fourth grade Science Fair.
