I copied some text I found online...
REAL-WORLD SCIENCE: What could be cooler than building a domino run? Well, how about a friendly, wiggle-eyed robot that sets up your dominoes for you? Engineer your very own dazzling domino machine, then use it to lay out a variety of daring domino runs you design yourself!
BUILD-IT-YOURSELF: From a handy-dandy mini screwdriver to an illustrated blueprint to a step-by-step online video tutorial for extra troubleshooting help, this crate comes with everything you need to build your domino machine — plus 100 wood dominoes for bringing your domino runs to life.
DARE TO DESIGN: Learn how to build basic domino tricks (like curves, splits, and stacked structures) and about the importance of leaving safety gaps between your dominoes. Explore real-world domino art, then put your iterative-design skills to work by trying, testing, tweaking, and repeating your runs.
EDUCATIONAL: Flip through the included 12-page zine and learn all about chain reactions, the science behind energy transfer, and the power of potential energy. Explore exponential growth and how with a series of just 29 dominoes of increasing size, you could theoretically knock down the Empire State Building!
HANDS-ON FUN: Become a domino artist and creator, and discover dazzling fun facts about the wonderful world of dominoes! Read about the great domino artists, world records, and all the weird things people have used to make domino runs (including bricks, mattresses, and laptops)!
