Join us live for a presentation all about National Geographic bestselling book, Beastly Bionics. Sticky feet that climb anything. Trunk-like robotic arms. Super-sensitive hearing. What is this? Some kind of new superhero? No! These are all examples of REAL technology made with bionics/biomimicry. In this FUN and interactive presentation by children’s science author Jennifer Swanson, you will get an inside look at many awesome inventions being created by engineers right now! All are based on animals, some might live right in your backyard. Then it’ll be YOUR turn! You’ll get instructions on how to go outside, find an animal, observe it, and draw your own bionic invention. What will YOU design? Be one of the first 30 children at the event and receive a FREE copy of Beastly Bionics to keep!
