LINK March: Maker Madness

Date:

March 17, 2023

Time:

10:00am - 1:00pm

Description: LINK is a one-of-a-kind experience tailored for home school  families visiting the makerspace. This three-hour program features side-by-side activities for children and their parents/caregivers, a group tour of the makerspace, and a collaborative making project the whole family can enjoy. Participants will also leave with resources to continue making at home.

This month we will have the ultimate physics maker challenge! Makers will build projectile launchers using a variety of recycled materials from the makerspace, the goal of this session is to earn as many free throws as you can by hitting a bullseye with your projectile launcher. Are you game for this maker frenzy?

All participating children MUST be accompanied by a parent or caregiver over the age of 18. We will have complementary programming for parents while children are working on their projects. When registering, please list the accompanying adult as the primary registrant.

Age: The activities offered during LINK are designed for children ages 6-13, but children outside this age range are still welcome in the space. If bringing in children younger than 6, please be advised that there are small parts, electronic and mechanical hazards and that you are responsible for supervising your child at all times.

Cost: $10.00 / family. If this cost is prohobitive, please email info@gizmo-cda.org to inquire about a waiver.
