Let’s play with linkages!!! Connect rods of cardboard with brad fasteners. When you are satisfied with a movement, you can give your creature features. Vicious? Sweet? Viciously sweet? It’s up to you.

How does Virtual TinkerTime Work:
TinkerSpace staff will show a basic technique. You can then tinker with the idea and make something as simple or complex as you desire. We are choosing activities that are suitable for young children working with their parents, children ages 6+ working on their own, and for advanced crafters (up to adults) trying out techniques that might interest and inspire others.

A half-hour before the Virtual TinkerTime, you will be sent a Zoom link to join. You do not need to have the Zoom App on your device, you can enter the Zoom room just by clicking the link you will be given.

You will need a space to work, cardboard strips, an awl or sharp pencil to poke holes in the cardboard strips, brad fasteners, colored paper, thin cardboard (cereal box), glue, scissors, and markers.

You can purchase a kit from TinkerSpace (pick-up only) with cardboard strips (holes pre-poked at regular intervals), brads, and colored card stock scraps.  You will only need glue (Tacky Glue or Elmer’s is best for this project), scissors, and possibly markers.
