This 28-minute VHS video will encourage your students to tap their creative talents, use higher level thinking skills and invent things! They will see a wide variety of inventions made by both adults and children. We begin at the Rover Round Up where wild robotic vehicles are tested for extraterrestrial exploration. Then it's off to the Inventor's Showcase in San Diego, where students in grades 3-7 show off their inventions. We then interview adults at an invention convention, and a 7th grader who has made millions from his unique water toys. Finally, we follow one student as she prepares her invention for county competition. Even if you do not have an invention fair at your school, this is a wonderful video to show! Who knows, maybe one of your students will some day make life easier for all of us!
