Review: Amazing book to inspire future inventors - My 12 year old LOVES this book Review: Inspired My 9YO - This book really excited my 9YO. He picked it up on his own, and some of the projects are easy enough for him to do independently. The material is engaging, easy to follow, and beautifully illustrated. My kiddo really got into it, and because there are projects with different variations and levels of difficulty, it is not just a one-off book.

They are all fun and imaginative
If you're looking to inspire the next inventor, get them this book. It is full of a diverse list of projects that scaffold from simple to challenging. They are all fun and imaginative. The clear directions and illustrations make the book very easy to follow. After learning the beginning ideas behind hacking slippers, building games, and making robots, any inventor will have the basic information they need to continue inventing gadgets for many years to come. I can't recommend this book enough--a perfect gift!

Not your average kids project book!
I got this book with the intention of giving it to my godson. I was initially worried it would be too advanced, but the projects are so well laid out that it will be a great book for him to grow into as projects are rated by difficulty level. Love the cute illustrations too! As a maker, I think there should be more books like this in print that aren't cheesy, or generic for kids and tweens!

Helping kids understand how their favourite games, gizmos
Helping kids understand how their favourite games, gizmos, and toys work is not only a fun way to spend time with curious kids; it's also a way to engage them into the fundamentals of "how things work" in an accessible and non-intimidating way. Be prepared to be amazed at how quickly a homemade robot can be built! A great project book to do over summer break.

This book is so much fun for kids
This book is so much fun for kids! As an elementary school principal, I am always looking for engaging and exciting books for kids. Our students are fighting over who gets to check this out of the library. They love it!
