Welcome
to the Student Zone!
Here is the updated scheudule for the Miami Valley Invention Convention on Sunday, April 13, 2008.
You have just entered the fun zone!
The Invention Convention was developed to allow kids, just like
you, to use your imagination, your ideas, and your brains to
solve everyday problems. Kids, exactly like you, invent new
things every day! It's true, and better yet, it's easy and YOU
can do it! Anytime or anywhere, because you NEVER need permission
to solve a problem or invent something fun or useful. You don't
have to live in a certain place, or be a certain age, all you
have to be is you. And we believe in you.
Anytime you are faced with a problem, or when an idea magically
pops into your head, you have the opportunity to create. All
you have to do is just turn on your brain and think. It's that
easy, and well let you in on a little secret... inventing, creating
something new, can be tons of FUN! At times it can be more fun
than playing video games or riding your bike or hanging out
with friends. Go ahead, try it! We know that you can do it,
that's why we're here. Every kid, including you, has the potential
to solve problems and to invent something new. And we're here
to help you.
Did you know that it took Thomas Edison thousands of tries before
he invented the light bulb? So if your idea doesn't work the
first time, or second or 100th time, don't give up, because
the next time could be the try that finally works! And wouldn't
it be totally cool to invent something new and possibly win
something for your idea? A cool prize or a college scholarship
up to $15,000. We think that's pretty cool.
All you have to start with is an idea, and we'll help you with
the rest. So the next time you have an idea, or you think of
something fun that's never been done before, write it down,
and let the fun begin! |
