Description
Does your child have a favourite Pokémon, K Pop Demon Hunters , or video game character they wish they could hold in their hands? Now they can. In this hands-on program, kids design their dream character from scratch using real 3D design software — and follow every step of the journey as it transforms from an idea on a screen into something they can actually hold in their hands. No kits, no templates — just their imagination and the tools to make it real.
Throughout the program, participants will:
• Design an original character or figure entirely from scratch using TinkerCAD, the same type of software used by real engineers and product designers
• Learn core design principles — shape, proportion, symmetry, and structure — by applying them directly to something they actually care about
• Troubleshoot and refine their designs across sessions, learning to problem-solve like a real maker
• Take on fun themed mini-challenges, like recreating a signature Pokémon feature or designing a custom accessory for their character
• Learn simple finishing techniques to give their print a polished, professional look
• Design, print, and take home a custom keychain and figurine of their very own creation
