Linkage creatures took over a family day at Port Discovery Children's Museum in Baltimore. Kids built cardboard machines with moving parts and brought them to life.

Art educators from across Maryland spent a PD day building automata, cardboard machines that bring 2D drawings to life as moving 3D stories. Now their students get to make them too.

Free laser files for a Monster Claw. Cut the levers from cardboard, add a pneumatic kit, and it grabs. Free print and laser files: learn.futuremakers.fun/?s=x
Family night goes better when everyone builds. Kids and grown-ups at a school gym putting together giant straw structures, one connector at a time. #familynight

Today Mr. Holtry’s @joelholtry fifth grade class earned peaceful day recess with @futuremakerkids engineering kits! So much fun and engagement! @MarsEstatesBCPS Collaboration and building relationships! #communityschools
If you’re a #makerspace #librarian at #alaac24 stop by the Maker Pavilion and pick up a free Spark - see you this weekend in San Diego!
A sneak peek at a new Spark… Scene Machines!
Inspired by the Automata collection at Baltimore’s @TheAVAM , we’re investigating ways anyone can create simple cardboard automata without needing special tools or materials.
Watch this space - more coming soon!
We’re partnering with the @marylandzoo this summer to design and test a special Spark about creatures, movement, locomotion, and play - for people >and< animals in the care of the zoo.
Watch this space - more to be shared soon!
Proud to be part of @arts4learningmd and be able to work with @PrincipalShepp ‘s 5th graders at George Washington Elementary - activating #STEAM mindsets + #playfulengineering through #drawbots @BaltCitySchools @mdartscouncil
Drawbots at the @thecjrschool Science Fair & Engineering Night!
#playfulengineering mindsets & positive family engagement demonstrates deep commitment to learners & caregivers growing together.
