PlaSmart PlasmaCar - Hand-Propelled Scooter

Are you ready for the coolest science toy ever? The PlasmaCar has received the prestigious 3 Star Award from the Canadian Toy Testing Council and has been certified with the "Wow!" status from Today's Parent Magazine.

Hop on board a PlasmaCar and get ready to cruise around in style. The PlasmaCar looks like a racecar with its vivid, sleek and aerodynamic design but is deceptively simple to operate.

Forget about using pedals, gears or batteries to power this race car, this indoor and outdoor toy runs on pure “kid” energy by harnessing the forces of inertia, centrifugal force, gravity, and friction. Simply turn the wheel from left to right and let nature's forces do the work! Children are not only having fun but are working their upper extremities with a great workout and developing gross motor skills.

HOW IT WORKS: Just rotate the steering wheel continuously from left to right. It also works in reverse.

To stop, put your feet on the ground.
