Mehano - Based in Slovenia, Mehano has been making quality toys since 1952 and its products are exported to more than 30 countries - including now Australia. Their Science Kits are unparalleled in terms of quality and value for money.
We have three product groups available from Mehano - Science Kits, Typewriters, Train Sets and Children's Laptops.
The new Experimental Cube range offers a wide variety of experiments across several themes. The five experimental cubes explain the mysteries of nature while the two Playscience Cubes explain nature’s influence on everyday phenomena on our surroundings.
Each cube includes all specialist equipment required, but may need to be augmented with some standard household items. Magnificently detailed experiment cards accompany each set, with the Experimental Cubes containing 25 experiment cards, while the Playscience Cubes contain over 60 documented experiments each.
Apart from offering multiple experiments, the Mehano kits stand out by being fully re-usable. While some typical consumable items may need to be replaced, the main components in the kit can be used time and time again.
