Description
Twenty-five interactive cardboard model projects that engage kids’ creativity and “out of the box” thinking skills through hands-on learning and the application of science-based principles.
Kids can bring old cardboard to life and build recycled creations they may be able to play with, take a seat in, and wear.
Supporting STEAM education initiatives and the Maker Movement, Out of the Box includes 25 interactive cardboard model projects to inspire kids’ creativity through engaged and hands-on learning, and, as the founder of Maker Faire Dale Dougherty says, “to realize with their hands what they may be able to consider in their minds.”
From small-scale gifts to large constructions, writer and award-winning paper engineer Jemma Westing uses clear, step by step instructions to show kids learn how to make dinosaurs, masks, race cars, and so a lot more, and inspirational images encourage them to make their own unique models when they’re feeling more confident. The projects utilize only recycled materials, including cardboard rolls and boxes, so the entire supplies will have to be easy to find right at home.
Build something brilliant with Out of the Box. The possibilities are endless!
