DIY Worm Robot Toy – A Fun STEM Scientific Craft
The DIY Worm Robot Toy is a small but exciting scientific craft that introduces kids and beginners to the basics of electronics, motion, and engineering. This mini invention is perfect for STEM education, maker activities, and science popularization at home or in the classroom.
With just a few simple components, you can build a moving worm-like robot that demonstrates how electrical energy is converted into mechanical motion. It’s a hands-on experiment that makes learning science fun and interactive.
DIY Worm Robot Kit (Before Assembling)
Before starting the build, take a look at the worm robot kit before assembly. This image helps learners identify all the included parts and understand how each component will be used in the project.
Video Tutorial
To follow the complete step-by-step build process, watch the full video tutorial on my YouTube channel, where I explain the components, connections, and how the worm robot works in a simple and clear way.
Batteries Used
This project uses 2 × 1.5V batteries, providing enough power to run the motor smoothly. The battery setup is simple and safe, making it ideal for children and beginners under supervision.
DC Motor Used
The worm robot is powered by a 5V DC gear motor. This motor is responsible for creating the vibration or movement that makes the robot “crawl” like a worm. Gear motors are great for small projects because they offer better control and torque at low speeds.
