Example experiments:

• Linda's treehouse is not connected to the electrical power grid, but Pepper Mint devises various mechanical inventions to accomplish certain tasks. You will help Pepper equip the treehouse with pulleys, winches and gears as you learn important lessons in physics. You will also build a rope ladder, a zip line and a secret trap door. At the end of the story, you will also wire up a string of LED lanterns using conductive thread and a battery holder to light up the treehouse in the dark jungle night!

Your kit includes: A scale Pepper Mint figurine, the materials to build the treehouse and do the projects, and a full-colour illustrated storybook.

You will also need the following household items to complete the experiments:

• A ruler, scissors and craft glue
• Coloured pencils, wood glue and sticky tape
• 5 coins, brown paper and 2 x AA batteries
