Help build the city of the future from home<\/h2>\n

(this project has already finished, but you can still use our videos, building tips and resources)<\/p>\n

Turn your home into an inventors’ lab<\/span><\/h3>\n

Are you at home a lot too? And do you sometimes find it hard to think of something to do? The Discovery Factory has an idea. And we need you for it.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Become a creative inventor! Use your imagination and build your ideas for the future.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Join in with the whole family. Come up with great things and make them together.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Use simple everyday household materials. You don’t need to go to the shop for special supplies.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Together we are building What\u2022If\u2022City<\/span><\/h3>\n

What If lots of children made small parts of a city at home? And What If we put them all together in The Discovery Factory? Then together we would build a scale model of an enormous city! How cool is that?!<\/p>\n

Build your own What\u2022If\u2022City at home<\/strong>
\nHelp build What-If-City with the whole family during the Corona period. What If you could decide what the city of the future looks like? Make your own fantasy city of the future (a house, a bridge, a slide, a tower, a viaduct or something completely different?). You design and build your own parts of that new city right at home, using everyday household materials.<\/p>\n

Your city, your future<\/strong>
\nA huge block of flats you can ski down from! Or would you rather live among the trees? In your city, anything is possible. Your city will surely be a smart city full of new inventions. With plenty of room for young and old people. And animals, of course. A city full of buildings that make people happy. Then everyone will love living there.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
