    Also, it’d be super cool to attend a network event where a expert gave their life story regarding how their love of robotics was fostered, what made them interested, what was helpful in school and home as well as what was not helpful.

    My kiddo is 4 and with my guidance he’s putting robot kits together for 9+ yrs. He can’t read yet so I’ll point to the picture of the step we’re in and he’ll find the shapes and put them together as the instructions say. Parental interest and complete attention with the child go a long way I’ve noticed.

    This show is so good!! We loved mixing up the vinegar and baking soda experiment! We took what we learned and mixed those ingredients with our soil to test to see if our soil was too acidic or alkaline for our seeds.

    I think the really question is why are they watching TV? Is it being used as a babysitter? Or perhaps a teacher? Maybe for entertainment?
    Then the next question to ask is, what is a better way to accomplish what you’re trying to achieve? If it’s for a babysitter perhaps they could instead be playing gamified engineering programs. Same for goes for if the TV is acting teacher. If it’s entertainment they want, why not go swimming or hiking or learn to make homemade ice cream or jump on the trampoline? For me, this response goes for everyone, not just under a certain age.

    Hi! I was having the same problem for a book I made transposing a course into a children’s book. I just uploaded it to my Google drive and posted the link to Google drive. Made sure the link was public for anyone to view and download. Hope that works! ✨
