Will the ping pong ball reach its goal and make its way through the stations? Things get really exciting once the obstacle course has been set up, as the ball’s route can’t be anticipated at first glance. 

The ping pong ball travels through a series of chain reactions as it rolls through the course, making its way through curves and obstacles before being catapulted and hitting a tyre. Discovering the combination of the kit with everyday objects is particularly exciting, as incorporating a conventional plastic bottle can allow young tinkerers to observe how a pressure tank works. Once the bottle fills with water from a pipe and gets heavier, it sinks and triggers a mechanism that springs upwards, causing the ping pong ball to set in motion again. A pulley is also integrated into the obstacle course. 

The special thing about this kit is that young tinkerers can observe multiple reactions at once, as these occurrences don’t happen in a set sequence. Instead, they are partially combined with one another or completely unpredictable.

Discovering these chain reactions motivates children to expand the models with their own creative ideas. Crazy Reactions can be combined with the fischertechnik Funny Machines and Funny Reactions construction kits.
