TINKERING WORKSHOP (PB)

Get ready to tinker, explore, and engineer with screws, bendy wire, metal washers, plastic pipes, dowels, electronics, LED lights, and more! Makerspace educator Ryan Jenkins inspires kids aged 8 to 12 to look at familiar supplies in new and unexpected ways, to think with their hands, troubleshoot tricky constructions, and sharpen their problem-solving skills. Projects include building flexible forts with cardboard and screws; making art robots with hobby motors; constructing a water factory with plastic pipes; balancing sky trams on strings; and engineering surprising switches with wire and foil.
