We will be setting up our Makerspace Lab soon and are looking for donations of items you may have laying around your house.
Our makerspace lab will be a creative, collaborative, hands-on learning area where our scholars explore, design, build, and experiment using a variety of tools and materials. It’s a place where curiosity and imagination come together to solve problems, create projects, and bring ideas to life.
Here are some ideas of materials we can use:
- Scrapbook paper
- Cardstock
- Construction paper
- Color printer paper
- Index cards
- Empty boxes—tissue, cereal
- Paper plates-large and small
- Toilet paper rolls
- Paper towel rolls
- Cardboard cut into smaller pieces
- Clothespins
- Toothpicks
- Plastic Solo type cups
- Small paper cups
- Bottle caps
- Masking tape
- Rubber bands
- Paperclips
- Clear, empty water bottles
- Any kind of building toys you no longer use: Legos, K’nex, blocks, etc.
