This month we are publishing a favorite, build a house activity! This activity is perfect for children with big dreams and curious minds in building structures and designs. We’ve seen some incredible designs from our Future Maker followers. And parents have expressed seeing a transformation that blends from learning with play, and turning simple straws into towering structures and architectural masterpieces.
The mission at MAKE is to educate, inspire, and equip the next generation to win in manufacturing. We have three pillars that focus on just that; Read, Build, Experience. Our team is honored to have your family part of the MAKE Community. Join our newsletter Future Makers and follow us along on this journey as we continue to showcase how awesome manufacturing is!
