"Hello Kitty (with a very aggressive weapon) vs Robot Monkey (with his hands up)" -- This stop motion video was made in our LEARNING LABS - 2014 07 30... fantastic!

Making stop motion videos in yesterday's Learning Lab... it was so much fun!
The Learning Labs continue to be a big hit, with all kinds of engineering and tech exploration happening. Yesterday, we built egg-protection contraptions then dropped them from various heights, to see if the shell broke. Taking wind resistance and gravity into account, we had some great successes. We also made a variety of paper airplanes, and tested their flying distance. Want to join the Learning Labs fun? Next one coming up is Tuesday, July 29th.

Have a career interest? It's never too early to start talking to people 'in the biz'. Find someone you look up to, and write them an email, a letter, or give them a call. It doesn't hurt to ask for help, and you never know where it can lead!
