4M Green Science - Weather Station

The Borella Stazione Metereologica is recommended for children aged 6 to 10 years old.

The kit includes a plastic tube, thermometer, funnel, anemometer cups, wind vane, and detailed instructions. It also contains components for the terrarium, cloud, acid rain, and global warming experiments.

You will typically need to provide soil, small plants, and water for the terrarium. Instructions will guide you on what is needed.

Adult supervision is recommended, especially for younger children during assembly and for conducting some of the more complex experiments.

No, this is an educational toy designed for basic observation and learning, not for professional meteorological data collection.

The weather station has a compact footprint of approximately 22x12 cm (9x5 inches).

You can experiment with the greenhouse effect, create a terrarium, conduct acid rain experiments, and create a misty cloud.

Ensure all parts are correctly assembled and that there are no obstructions. Check that the cups are balanced and the central shaft is clear.

Verify the thermometer is placed in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources or cold drafts. Allow time for it to acclimate to the ambient temperature.

Adjust the amount of water. If too dry, add a small amount of water. If too wet, remove the lid for a few hours to allow excess moisture to evaporate.

Confirm the wind vane is balanced and pivots freely on its mount. Ensure it is positioned in an open area where wind can reach it unimpeded.
