Cardboard Construction Resources

One of the best and most accessible tinkering activities is building with cardboard. Constructing playful, innovative and personally meaningful creations out of cardboard allows learners to use a familiar material in unexpected ways, get quick feedback and develop fluency with engineering practices.

This week I’m leading a cardboard tinkering workshop at Maker Faire Cairo and I wanted to share a round-up of some resources for taking cardboard explorations deeper.

There are also many artists who use cardboard and demonstrate the ‘high ceilings’ of this everyday material. Here are a few of my favorites that can provide inspiration!
