Learning Can Be Fun – Trundle Wheel Plastic

Now it’s easy to measure long distances. This trundle wheel is a user-friendly measuring device. This plastic trundle wheel comes with a loud clicking device which can be set to three positions (off, every 10cm or every metre).

It can also activate the wheel in either direction, while the handle is detachable for easy storage and transport.

When you start measuring the distance travelled, make sure you start with the arrow pointing at the start. Every time the wheel makes a complete rotation, it produces an audible click.

By counting the number of clicks, you can calculate the distance travelled. The end point of the arrow will show the extra centimetres.

The handle can adjust into different lengths.

No matter whether you are a child or an adult, the different lengths of the handle will fit your needs.

Key Features:

• Audible Feedback: Features a loud, satisfying click for every metre measured, making it easy for groups of children to track distance together.
