We watched a great video about a 13yr old boy, Richard, from Kenya who made a great invention to solve a problem on his land.
We talked about the engineering design process.
We discussed rules for brainstorming and then went nuts with our ideas.
We came up with ideas like edible toothpicks to secure wraps, edible books, automatic pens that write what you dictate, babblefish, robotic nanny, waterproof paper, drink dispensing helmet, golf ball detector, extendable pencil case, lunar panels, feet warmers, inflatable shoes, stretchable orthotics, stunt carts, rubbish compactor, walkable suitcase, moveable rubbish bins with sensors, massaging toilet, talking book, solar torch, auto rubbish bin, car running on pollution, tripod worm farm, vegetable flavourer, jet pack, sibling spray away.
What fantastic ideas to start off with S'Mart Tank group. I especially like the automatic pens, very cool.
