Even on a smaller scale than the playground version above, it could be a very fun addition to learning. When kids get a visual, tangible, in their minds eye view of anything, they carry it with them in a much different way than just seeing the pictures. It can be an inspiring thing, like a light-bulb moment for some, and that is what kids need, something that connects them personally to science in hopes they will keep that view of their world instead of some of the less scientific alternatives.
