Green Dollhouse Challenge design starter

The Green Dollhouse Challenge is an annual, statewide builders' challenge where people of all ages enter play-structures to earn non-competitive awards for expressing any of many sustainable attributes.
IG program participants will work with various materials to imagine and begin designing a small play-structure, like a dollhouse or 3D game, to enter in this year's Challenge. Entries may be selected to be exhibited at the State Fair in August.
In the three hours we have, we will discuss the simple rules, the tough creative challenges, and help each other come up with novel entries that are playful and express sustainable aspects. Program participants will be provided design materials like cardboard and foam to explore ideas. Finally, we'll review each other's ideas and designs to help each participant plan a final design they'll complete on their own time. Participants must practice safety with cutting tools.
This is a repeat of a workshop earlier this day, 1pm-4pm. Attend whichever one you can. One might fill before the other.
