Maker Challenge: Cardboard Construction: Animal Accessories

Step into The Forge and turn cardboard into a wearable accessory! Using special construction tools, you’ll cut, shape, and connect cardboard pieces to design your very own animal related elements—think hats, masks, wings, and more. Along the way, you’ll discover the science of structures and materials while letting your imagination run wild. Build it, wear it, and show off your one-of-a-kind creation!

This challenge will be held daily between 10 a.m.–Noon and 3:30–5 p.m. everyday in June except for the following dates: 7, 14, 21 and 28.
