Last Saturday, kids between 9 and 16 years old owned FabLabBCN and, together with their parents, had a great experience fabricating a simple and funny lightened-eyes gremlin. With an easy assembling system made of felt and foam, and electronic components such as LEDs, 3-volt batteries, connectors, and some cables, everyone had the chance to learn about the use of the laser engraver, electronics and soldering.
Ok, the truth is that they also ran all over the institute screaming, having cookies and chips, laughing, making fun of each other...Well, they are kids. It's their right to behave like that. But, which was the best part of this 4-hour workshop? Everybody, kids, parents, known or unknown had fun, and helped each other to finish the gremlin. Isn't it a nice end/goal for every project?
