With UberStix, not only do you learn engineering and designing, you get a physics lesson at the same time (without even realizing it). The builder learns to analyze the relationship between parts to get the desired result. Teachers use Uberstix projects to teach fundamentals of physics, math, aerodynamics, engineering and design. Best of all, it's fun! UberStix comes in categories of Build it, Float it, and Fly it. Some sets are made to only be built, while others can be made to float or even fly!

 

UberStix is designed to integrate with everything from water bottles, Popsicle® sticks, egg cartons, McDonald's® straws, paper clips, and much more! PLUS, all UberStix items are engineered to be compatible with all major building systems such as LEGO®, K'nex®, Erector®, Zoobs®, Zome®, etc. So kids can integrate parts they already have and get very creative!
