Calvin Asks: How can I keep my daughter inspired in engineering subjects?

My daughter is 11 and loves all things STEM! However they don’t do a lot of science at school and I want to make sure she stays interested in the subject.


I am clueless about engineering and I was hoping to get some advice about interesting activities to inspire her.


I'm a single mum and money is tight, so big expensive things are out – any suggestions on what I can do?

  • Wow what a creative burst of energy! Its great to see some unfamiliar names in the forums.


    For those who have the wherewithal, there numerous possibilities in the USA. Seattle is great if aviation pushes the right buttons, including the world’s biggest shed. Even a look round some of the websites might inspire an interest. One of my nieces has an “American Dream”.
