About this Event

Velcro, waterproofing, winter coats - what do all these things have in common? Their designs were inspired by plants and animals! Students observe a variety of organisms and use what they learn to design their very own solution to everyday problems. 

 

Some of the guided activities:  

  • Discover the traits that animals have that help them survive in their environment. 
  • See how animals have provided solutions to real-life problems you may have experienced. 
  • Create your own solution to everyday problems using inspiration from animals.
