Session

As part of research into play and creativity, Amos Blanton and educators from Aarhus Public Libraries developed Playing with the Sun, a set of Tinkering activities and a construction kit designed to invite children to develop an intuitive sense of how sustainable energy works. In this talk I’ll give a sense of how the project emerged, the processes used to create it, and how other libraries can build the open-source kit themselves.

Maximum capacity: 32 people
