Description

Bring history and engineering to life with the DIY Leonardo Da Vinci Catapult Kit—a hands-on STEM building project designed for kids, teens, and adults. Based on Leonardo’s original 15th-century design, this functional model lets you explore core physics and mechanical principles while launching real projectiles over 15 feet.

Ideal for STEM learners ages 14+ (or 9+ with adult supervision), this educational kit includes precision laser-cut wooden parts, an illustrated instruction booklet, and engaging historical context to deepen the learning experience. It’s perfect for school projects, workshops, homeschool activities, or as a unique desk toy for adults.

As you build and operate the catapult, you’ll explore lever systems, mechanical tension, projectile motion, and essential design and engineering skills—all while having fun with a safe, eco-friendly model made from FSC-certified wood.
