Description

In this two-day class, your child will learn to explore ideas and materials to come up with solutions to problems and prompts. Our main goal is to encourage your child to think through problems and experiment with unconventional materials to create innovative inventions.

On day 1, we  will start with an ice-breaker to think about toy design, considering who their toy is for and moving into ideation and prototyping. Day 2 we will get inspired by the season and focus on Halloween-themed projects, using techniques like Pepper’s Ghost effect and sound-driven experiences. By the end of our time together, students will have created two inventions and gained a deeper understanding of creative problem solving! 

This course must meet minimum enrollment by October 19 in order to run. Register today!
