These 10 Cool Gadgets Were Invented By 4-12 Year Old Kids

Over 450 children across Sunderland and South Tyneside, UK were asked to draw their ideas for inventions by a British designer and inventor named Dominic Wilcox. Out of the 600 drawing that were submitted, 60 of them were chosen to be presented to local makers that could help with manufacturing the devices.

When submitting their ideas, the kids were asked to explain the purpose of their invention and how it should go about accomplishing its purpose. A short time of only 4 weeks was all the makers had to produce real-life objects, ensuring that they created exactly what the kids had shared. The initiative was called “INVENTORS!

“The children were the stars and I gained so much enjoyment seeing them getting excited about their and other peoples’s ideas,” Wilcox shared.

“Instead of just putting the drawings on the fridge door as most adults do with a child’s drawings, why not push the ideas as far as they can go?” states the project’s website. “Taking the power of children’s imaginations seriously and see where it leads to.”

Check out a couple of the inventions below.
