Paul Justin's Makedo Toolkit Wins Platinum A' Design Award for Toys, Games, and Hobby Products
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Paul Justin's Makedo Toolkit is a revolutionary cardboard construction system designed to empower children to bring their imaginative ideas to life. Inspired by the need to support his children's creative play, Justin created Makedo, a simple, safe, and reusable set of tools that allows kids as young as four to cut, punch holes, and connect cardboard to build anything they can imagine.
Makedo aligns with global shifts in education, emphasizing creativity, critical thinking, communication, and collaboration. It fosters children's natural inclination to learn through making and doing, making it an ideal tool for classrooms, maker spaces, museums, and homes.
With a resealable pouch containing a Safe-saw, Scrudriver, and a variety of connectors, Makedo is designed for both individual and group use, catering to all skill levels. Additionally, a library of free 3D print files is available online to extend and enhance the Makedo system.
Championing safety and creativity, Makedo has overcome the limitations of traditional cardboard crafting tools, providing a platform for young makers to bring their ideas to life independently. This innovative approach has earned Makedo the prestigious Platinum A' Design Award for Toys, Games, and Hobby Products in 2017, recognizing its exceptional design and contribution to societal wellbeing.
