The Ultimate Recycling Machine @ Pretemnd City

This summer Pretend
City is introducing the Ultimate Recycling Machine. This large scale hands-on
experience geared towards school-aged children combines engineering,
collaboration, and sustainability. The challenge is to design and build a
machine, “The Ultimate Recycling Invention” that transports a plastic bottle
into a recycling bin. Or the challenge could be to create a roller coaster that
carries a marble or golf ball. It always looks different, with combinations of
tube structures, zip lines, pulleys, pendulums, and more. This new activity is
ideal for intergenerational participation – grown-ups and children alike will
be fully engaged. You will be amazed by how much creativity, tenacity and
teamwork emerges from this simple set-up!
