Makedo needs little introduction; find some cardboard, grab some Makedo tools and get started. The awesomeness of Makedo is that children learn by doing, creating, experimenting, failing and maybe succeeding but that's not essential. The creations then open the door to imaginative play where the child is protagonist in a hack-able world of their own making.
What is Makedo?
Makedo is a hands-on STEAM learning cardboard construction kit consisting of plastic tools and screws that teaches kids through play to see the world not as it is but as it could be. It also teaches tomorrow’s generation that “fun” doesn’t have to cost the planet.
Why Makedo?
Makedo inspires and enhances the learning process because it is highly engaging and super exciting to use. With Makedo, learners can explore their ideas and hypotheses in an open-ended, hands on way that engenders a deeper understanding of concepts with application to real-life scenarios.
With Makedo, the emphasis is on process rather than outcome. What could be seen as a mistake becomes a discovery and cause for celebration. Through a process of experimentation, adaptation and invention, with Makedo, ordinary cardboard becomes that imagined thing; from 'minds eye' to 'I made it'.
FIND
Makedo is the most open-ended toy construction system ever because the reusable tools work with cardboard; a universally available, free and unlimited building block.
MAKE
Designed for girls and boys, young and old, individuals and groups of all skill levels. With Makedo you can make anything imaginable of any size from a flower to a fort, a mask to a maze.
PLAY
Makedo creations set the stage for immersive, creative and open-ended play where the child is protagonist in a hack-able world of their own making.
LEARN
Makedo is a catalyst for critical thinking because it fosters the natural inclination of the child to learn by doing.
