The teaching and learning of invention literacy is often locked behind many pre-requisite skills and expensive STEM toys. Scrappy Circuits breaks down these barriers to learning to invent through using a modular system of bricks build by the learner and sourced for commonly found objects.

During this session we will build off of the previous blocks and create three new bricks; the Baller, Game, and Hole-In-One Bricks.

Watch and make LIVE on the Family Maker Camp FB page or on the Make: Kids Youtube channel.
