Making With Electronics (Ages 6-9)

Learn to be a Maker, and use electrical circuits to create cool stuff!

A MakerSpace is a collaborative work space for making, learning, exploring and sharing.  In our Junior Electronic MakerSpace, We provide tools, both common and high-tech, and some basic know-how in electrical wizardry, to help you bring simple materials like cardboard and play-dough to life!  Join us for an immersive and very hands-on adventure in Making.

The MakerSpace is a place to get creative and hands-on! Students will love an engaging array of physical and digital activities which activate their critical thinking skills, creative skills, and ability to problem solve. Activities will include: Making bridges strong enough to hold a Sphero robot - then code it to go across, design challenges such as making the tallest structure out of dry noodles, designing your dream home with Lego, learning how to animate objects with iPads, creating board games and arcade games, designing in Minecraft, and so much more!
