Wind Compass Explorer - DIY Kit

Short Product Description

Build a real working wind compass and learn how direction, magnetism, and wind movement work together! Kids assemble a rotating pointer, magnetic components, and a PETG dial to create a fully functional explorer’s tool.

What’s Inside the Box

• Laser-cut wooden base & arrow components

• PETG compass dial

• Magnetic pointer components

• Wooden pivot peg

• Rubber band and assembly parts

• Illustrated instruction manual

How It Works

The pointer is mounted on a low-friction pivot, allowing it to rotate freely.
When aligned with a magnet or placed outdoors:

• Kids observe how magnetic force influences the pointer

• They can test wind direction by facing the compass into airflow

• The PETG dial helps them read directions accurately

A simple, hands-on way to understand navigation and Earth’s magnetic field.

What Kids Learn

• Direction & navigation basics

• Magnetism & magnetic force

• How compasses work

• STEM exploration & outdoor observation

Perfect For
