On Saturday Sebastian's elementary school hosted its first ever mini maker fair, inviting various crafts and engineering outfits to come and present their projects and help the children create them.
We built a rocket out of paper - actually, two, because the first one exploded and didn't make it off the ground and I couldn't bear Seb's disappointment - drove an underwater robot and built a little blinking light spider, a paper origami book, and three buttons of various designs. It was pretty cool and interesting to experiment with various mediums and to see what people were making. Although he was too young to do most of the things independently, Sebastian was definitely interested and has already requested to return next year. I thought that was a great success.
