Hi,
My wife has just asked me if I would like a project towards her MSc at our kids local pre-school. To create a light box /projector for a pre-school. The idea is to introduce some technology to 2-5 yr olds.
Basically something like a box with a torch or christmas lights under it. Maybe even a box with changing colours pretty much anything along that theme with basic tech involved.
I am thinking a cardboard box with a battery powered cupboard light. But don't think this will last long. If I make it out of anything more solid there is just too much risk of some kid hurting themselves. 4x2 with a strip light is just too risky :-)
Any creative suggestions? I have heard of an internet suggestion of a stack n store box with a hole and some cool running christmas lights under it.
For all you fogies out there. Yes 2 yr olds are introduced to tech, IT, ICT, Computing (whatever the latest gov buzz word is) get used to it :-) I remember my tech learnings came from the video camera in the window of Dixons.
