The PBS television series Design Squad is offering child inventors ages 5-19 a chance to have their inventions professionally prototyped and appear on an upcoming episode.
Seeking to get kids excited about engineering and inventing, the 2010 Trash to Treasure competition challenges kids to take everyday discarded or recycled materials and re-engineer them into functional products.
Three grand-prize winners will win a trip to Boston to see their designs built and will appear on the TV show and Web site
Twenty five finalists also will be featured on the site.
Inventions should
• move things or people, or
• protect the environment, or
• be used for indoor or outdoor play
