Kids teaching Kids: Noodle Robots


You are never to young to study robotics. This pool noodle robot is a simple take on the “vibrobot”, a robot that is controlled by a single vibrating motor. The materials? A piece of pool noodle and the motor from a battery-powered toothbrush! The outcome? A self-built vibrobot!
Our Kindergarten students are participants GA’s Young Engineers initiative. Together with their upper school KTK buddies, they build fun projects that foster knowledge and skills related to science, technology, and engineering. We aim to instill a “do-it-yourself” attitude in our youngest students so they feel empowered to explore, tinker and try to make things themselves.
