SPARK Workshops
Electronics Workshop
The Electronics Workshop is always great fun where children learn to use tools to take apart electronics (and sometimes other pre-electrical machines) to see what’s inside and how it all works. Building something new is always an option using the cannibalized parts. Steampunk and Cyberpunk artwork have been popular routes by many. Children always have the options to take home pieces from the day to inspire their curiosity further.
