Air Toobz is an air-powered STEM construction toy by Fat Brain Toys that turns airflow into hands-on, open-ended play. Kids aged 3+ can build their own tube networks, then switch on a kid-safe fan to send colourful foam balls flying, hovering, looping and swirling through their creations.
By adjusting tube layouts and airflow speed, children naturally explore cause and effect, problem-solving, spatial reasoning and early physics concepts - all through play. With endless ways to build and rebuild, Air Toobz is a high-engagement educational toy that grows with your child and keeps them coming back for more.
Air Toobz has been one of Cherrie Baby’s most popular Christmas and birthday gifts across 2024 and 2025, loved by kids, parents and gift-givers alike!
Air Toobz is recommended for ages 3 years and up. Younger children may enjoy supervised play, while older kids can create more complex builds.
Air Toobz encourages creativity, spatial reasoning, problem-solving, experimentation, cause-and-effect learning, and early STEM concepts like airflow and physics.
A kid-safe fan sends air through the connected tubes, moving the foam balls in different ways. The airflow is fully adjustable using a large dial with LED indicators, allowing kids to experiment with low vs high speed to create hovering, looping, jumping or fast-moving effects.
The set includes 20 foam balls, straight and corner tubes, a T-tube, a silicone funnel, easy-fit connectors, a rechargeable fan unit, charging cable, and a reusable storage case.
Air Toobz can also be expanded with:
Base Air Toobz set required for add-ons.
No disposable batteries are required. The rechargeable fan runs for around 1 hour on full speed or up to 3 hours on half speed, with an auto shut-off after 15 minutes to prevent battery drain.
