| The Thought Factory
is a design and production studio specializing in creative arts and hobby
crafts. It conducts Art Attack workshops for kids 12 years old and below
to bring out the child's creative talents, develop his artistic abilities
and explore designing, inventing and decorating through his own imagination.
Many projects are science-based and involve the
use of recycled materials. To list a few…
| 1. The Clucking Chicken |
| A lesson in sound travel, vibration, friction
and surface tension. Kids create, assemble and decorate a toy chicken
that makes funny clucking sounds. |
| 2. The Magic Wallet |
| Kids create a unique wallet that makes
money appear and disappear and move from one side to another. A
study in illusion. |
| 3. The Balancing Looney Birds
|
| A bunch of funny-looking birds that can
balance and swing freely on a finger, ear or in a mobile set-up.
Lessons in gravity, motion and balance. |
| 4. Big Mouth Bertha |
| An Origami character to cut, color, assemble
and turn into a talking puppet. |
| 5. Wally, the Whale Acrobat |
| A simple toy to cut, color, assemble and
play with. Wally balances a ball and catches it. Teaches wind direction
and distribution. |
| 6. Cow, the Obedient Monkey |
| A monkey that slides on a string upon command.
Teaches gravity and surface tension. |
