Young Inventor Workshop

Build It. Test It. Invent the Future.

Ages 7–12 yrsPlay 10–12 hrs10 build challengesEngineering

A real engineering workshop for growing makers. Using gears, pulleys, wheels, a mini motor and battery pack, children build a working rubber-band car, a Scribble-Bot and their own inventions from blueprint cards. The Challenge Book introduces simple machines, circuits and design thinking, then sets open-ended challenges with no single right answer, only better ideas.

Key educational outcome

Applies engineering thinking: designing, testing and improving solutions to real problems.

Why children love it

Things move, spin, light up and race, and they built every one of them.

For parents

Builds resilience through trial and error, introduces real engineering ahead of school, and rewards persistence with something that actually works.

“Inventors are not born. They are built, one idea at a time.”
