Expired Daisy Mechanical Engineering Board Game Design

  •  04/03/2021
     11:00 am CDT - 11:45 am CDT
Tuition: $5
Ready to take on the challenge of designing your own board game? You’ll get to choose your theme, decide on the rules and create and test your game.
This workshop will meet the requirements for the Daisy Mechanical Engineering Badge 1. Materials needed: heavy paper, or recycled cardboard (a frozen pizza box would be perfect), a pencil, markers, colored pencils or crayons, and any other decorations you like. Small toys, rocks, erasers, etc for options to move around the game board or to collect. For instance, my game has a gardening theme, so I’m going to use pumpkin seeds as my object to collect. You’ll also want some extra paper and scissors for creating your characters that will make around the game.
We’ll be making a spinner for our game. For that, you’ll need either a brad, screw, or thumbtack, a paperclip that will spin around the brad, screw or thumbtack and a heavy piece of cardboard to attach it all to.
Looking forward to seeing your creations!
