520			_aIntroduces kids to the design challenges faced by architects today, including choosing materials, designing for diverse users, and considering the environment. Offering a world of possibilities for learning math, engineering, history, social studies, planning, geography, art, and design, this rich educational resource includes hands-on projects that allow kids to experiment, design, build, succeed, fail, and try again. Children will draw upon many fields of knowledge and sharpen a variety of skills, including observation and communication, as they: Complete building challenges with corrugated cardboard and geodesic forms; Look at how designers have solved impossible problems of gravity and space with creations such as suspension bridges, the Loretto helix staircase, and Brunelleschis dome; Explore how materials can be used in interesting ways, such as how paper can go from flimsy to structural; Participate in family game playing: client and design team-finding creative ways to meet a clients wish list. Use games to test strength, balance, and structure; Engage in pure imaginative archi-doodling; Explain the why.
