Pelican model engine kits
How good are these for teaching kids about engines? I'm thinking my grandkids.

For me it’s more the bonding experience with my daughters. Since I haven’t rebuilt a real engine myself, I did read that it was “close enough”. As we were building, I showed her some videos of real builds that of course has extra steps.
