The Maker’s Red Box

Superheroes – Digital Storytelling

Innovative STEAM-focused curriculum for kids and young adults

https://makersredbox.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Superheroes_boxes-1.jpg

Participants create superheroes to express their feelings and experiences. By using storytelling methods, maker technologies and creative writing they express complex emotions in the form of objects. For this, children employ technologies such as 3D printing, laser cutting, electronics and microcontrollers or even sewing. After the participants created their very own heroes, they face interesting and fun challenges and delve into deep ethical and moral questions in their adventures.

Our boxes come with a lifetime license for each school or makerspace, but project pricing is also available.
