Maker Fair, part 2

Continuing our discoveries at the Maker Fair, we ventured toward and into the building.

The kids are watching him heat up and melt the glass at the top of bottles into ducks.

They had to ask what this was. I'm old.

This was by far their favorite part. She played with that robot dog for 45 minutes. She would play ball, get it to sit, pet it, and on and on. He sat for 45 minutes learning how to disassemble, reassemble, and understand how the dog worked. (I keep the blog a year in the past, but here's a hint of what is to come - by the end of the year they both have their own robot dogs.)

Watching a 3D printer. There were a few different variations at the fair. Some were homemade, some were multicolor, and they were all working and had people to answer questions.

The final post about this amazing maker fair will post on Thursday. It involves explosions...
