Little Inventors

Little Inventors turns childrens ideas into reality! We believe that childrens amazing invention ideas are a valuable contribution to the world. They shouldnt just be stuck to a fridge door and forgotten. Our aim is to inspire and support children around the world to use their wonderful imaginations to think up ingenious, fantastical, funny or perfectly practical invention ideas with no limits! The children and the Little Inventors team work with experts and professionals to turn the most innovative ideas into real objects for amazing Little Inventor exhibitions. (All children retain the copyright in their invention drawings). Littleinventors.org is the central place for children to share their invention ideas with other children (and adults!) across the globe. Children can freely upload their ideas to this website for positive and encouraging feedback from the Little Inventors team led by Chief Inventor Dominic Wilcox. Teachers and parents can download the free Little Inventors workshop resources, and share the invention ideas that are generated back on Littleinventors.org. These free resources offer many links to support the curriculum in primary schools in Art and design, Science and Literacy particularly. We work with schools, museums, hospitals and other child focused organisations to run Little Inventors workshops. These workshops inspire the children by showing interesting and fun invention ideas and challenging the children to think up and draw their ideas, before making a prototype using everyday materials. The best ideas submitted to littleinventors.org will be brought to life by being animated, or even made into reality by our Magnificent Makers such as craftspeople, manufacturers and the digital making community.
