Maker-Spiration Books


Recommended Posts

I'm putting together a list of books for our 3rd grade year, and hoping that others will chime in with their recommendations too. Our kids are pretty strictly screens-free at this time, so for our family we will not consider anything that is screen-based, but if you know of a great resource, please list it for another family who may be able to use it.

It's a priority in our home school, that the children to learn to skillfully make things. We have a variety of building materials available to them and are always on the lookout for more.

 

We have Knex, KEVA, and a lot stockpile of cardboard and plastic bottles. We are assembling the random tools and bits for a "tool kit" so if you have any suggestions for that, please chime in as well.

K'Nex Building Challenges (PDF)
How to Make Wooden Toys (more for inspiration)
Howtoons: Tools of Mass Construction
Engineer Through The Year

Books I don't own, but am considering:
Howtoons: Reignition   
Flipping Out making flip books
