A satellite model to assemble
This DIY kit lets you build a faithful replica of a satellite, with laser cut wooden pieces. Once assembled, the model measures about 20 cm long, 13 cm wide and 17 cm high. Thanks to its built-in solar panel, the satellite rotates on itself when exposed to light, a concrete demonstration of solar energy in action. A hands-on activity that combines precision, patience and physics.
A DIY satellite toy for playful learning
Ideal for children from age 8, this kit stimulates curiosity and develops STEM skills (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths). It is perfect for school projects, family workshops or as an original decoration on a desk. And if you wonder whether the build is accessible: the illustrated instructions make assembly simple and enjoyable, even for beginners.

Bought this for my 9-year-old son and he barely looked up for a whole Saturday afternoon. He built the lot himself, only shouting for me when a tiny cog wouldn’t sit right. Then we took it out to the back garden and he went quiet watching the panel catch the sun and set the little satellite turning. He’s already told his teacher about it and wants to know how real satellites stay powered. Money well spent.

Good little kit. Pieces fit together nicely and the finished model looks smarter than I expected for the price. It needs properly bright sunshine to get going though, so don’t expect much on a typical grey afternoon. Daughter’s chuffed with it regardless.

Ordered this a second time as a birthday present for my nephew, having bought the wind turbine kit from here last year and been pleased with it. Same story really: sturdy parts, sensible instructions, and the build took us about an hour and a half. Only niggle is the diagram on step six is a bit small to read. Otherwise no complaints from me.

Got this for our granddaughter and her smile when it started spinning in the window was worth every penny. Her dad helped with the tricky bits. Lovely gift.

got this for my grandson. the look on his face when it started spinning in the sun—priceless! A wonderful way to get him intrigued by science and space.

Quite the clever little kit. spent an afternoon tinkering with it, and it was brilliant watching it come together. the solar power aspect is especially intriguing, showing the practical side of renewable energy while capturing the excitement of space exploration.
