The adorable 6-in-1 OwiKits Solar Building Kit puts clean, renewable power in your child’s hands—literally. The snap-together OwiKits Solar Building Kit lets your child create two planes, an airboat, a car, a puppy, and a windmill out of a solar panel, a motor and a number of assorted parts.

According to Inhabitat, Craig Morioka, the president of OwiKits, says “Our kits are designed to involve, engage and educate. Being able to say ‘I built this myself’ gives kids a great sense of accomplishment.” I love Morioka’s rationale behind the OwiKits Solar Building Kit, and hope the product does well in stores.
