Cognitive and developing: In the 16th century “carousel” / “merry-go-round” was originally the name of an event for the nobility, which replaced joisting and included a "horse ballet" and costume riders and horses. In the 18th century French engineers have evolved the idea of a mechanical carousel with a rotating circular platform, with wooden horses mounted on it.  In those days, visitors sat on the horses trying to rip off the rings from the poles or had to hit the targets in a circle. In course of time a merry-go-round purchased acquaintances to us lines and associated with childhood and family leisure. The figures of horse, bear and elephant are set on the rotating round platform in the 3D coloring model «Merry-go-round». You can roll your favorite toy or twist a carousel in your hands and find out how it is arranged and how it works.  A merry-go-around is rotated about vertical axis and evidently shows the principle of work of the roller bearing. Assembles easily and is fun to play with.

Develops engineering skills, spatial thinking and fine motor skills. Captures the imagination of children for a long time.

Assembles easily: all component parts are already cut off and can be easily removed from the board. The model assembles like a puzzle without glue and special tools by following an illustrated color manual. While children are collecting some blocks, the adults can suggest their help: the joining parts are cut off precisely for the slots and for the assembly, you only need to insert the component pins, pressing them with your fingers. But if the fingers are too small, it may need some help.

Likable: with the help of fantasy, imagination and creative talents of young (and adult) artists each UGEARS coloring model gets a  unique and beautiful look, that will keep your spirits up being on the top of your desk.
