What our experts think
The children enjoyed quickly assembling the track and exploring how to launch the car through the three different hoops in order to tag one of three flags at the end of the track. They were well motivated to participate in the included “experiments” with their family and friends. When playing with the toy, it was clear that both the structured and unstructured aspects sparked their interest and repeat play was frequent. The children learned through trial and error and the included structured experiments. The more they learned about force and trajectory the more creative they became in their play. After they understood the capabilities of the set, they started to augment it with other Hot Wheels tracks and further tested how those changes impacted the trajectory of their vehicle. Some, with access to more compatible sets, expanded their play by creating intricate obstacle courses.
When playing with other children, their play became more cooperative and dramatic. Their energies and curiosities clearly built off of one another.
