Inventing things

The first design activity book for kids: Who wants to invent things? In this booklet DESiGN KiDS show how to collect, examine, transform, build and exhibit them. There are things to do alone or with friends, either directly in the book or with easy-to-find materials at home. All activities are tried and approved by real DESiGN KiDS and illustrated with their cool inventions. DESiGN KiDS create their own world. That is fun and also very useful. Who would not like to have a robot that helps with homework? The DESiGN KiDS demonstrate how to approach new inventions step by step and impress friends with design words like „brainstorm“ or „prototyping“. Based on a school workshop, the booklet was created in co-operation with the Werkbundarchiv – Museum of Things, Berlin. Many thanks to the DESiGN KiDS of Jens Nydahl Primary School for their brilliant inventions. The handy sized booklets were printed and packaged in eco-friendly fashion.
