Water you waiting for?

One more post about Thinkgeek!  I found one more set that I think could help students understand the idea of hydraulics.  Alongside the idea of the Engineering Process and cause/effect, the Hydrodynamic Building Set can allow students to develop their own projects to better understand the ideas of gravity, liquids, and other scientific laws.  While better in lower level grade,s this method could work as well in the high school range.  I personally think this is a great way to allow students to become involved in toll usage, as well as testing theories and principles.  Overall, students are able to freely express themselves with this technology.
