TDmonthly Magazine!





OWI’s research and development team has been stimulating brain cells to create a new category and diversifying its line in a new direction. Their commitment to provide hands-on robotics and science kits remains steadfast. But the demand to design “entry level product” that precedes its “Beginner Experience” kits has been overwhelming. The cocoon has opened and the birth of OWI’s “JR Science Series” has evolved. These easy-to-build kits will provide students, teachers, and hobbyist (with little to no experience), a fun and informative building session. 2005 Top Creative Toy Awards panel has awarded Turbo 3000 with the “2005 Preferred Choice Award”!

TURBO 3000 will amaze children nine years and older. This monster vehicle with oversized tires and independent suspension is “tricked-out”. It features three modes of propulsion: direct motor drive, air propulsion, and solar power (optional). The kit includes electricity experiments involving series and parallel circuits and a high powered miniature light bulb. The special air-blowing compartment allows the styrofoam ball (included) to magically float into the air while the car is running. No tools are required for this easy to assemble and disassemble magical beastly beauty. If that’s not enough, some of its transparent parts allow you to view and study the inner mechanics of the product.

Discovery and cranial developmental products has enabled OWI to be a premier science kit provider. The kit engages learning about electricity, circuits, air power, solar power (optional), friction, motion, simple machines, and physics. Now, that’s our commitment to learning! Our philosophy is, “building future minds…creating future leaders”.
