Real Problems to Solve!
The best inventions solve REAL problems. Here are some problems kids face every day:
Problem 1: Your backpack is too heavy and hurts your shoulders.
Problem 2: It is hard to reach things on high shelves.
Problem 3: Your pencils always roll off your desk.
Problem 4: You cannot find matching socks in the morning.
Problem 5: Your snack gets squished in your lunchbox.
Pick ONE problem (or think of your own!). Now use the engineering design process to invent a solution. Remember: there is no wrong answer. The craziest ideas sometimes become the best inventions!
