http://www.tinkerboxnews.com/"> What a great way to teach, and a fun way to learn through creative problem solving. Personally I would have named it Tinderbox for the fire in Science and Engineering it could spark.

Young people or in my case much older kids have fun while experimenting using physics to solve puzzles or engineer machines they can share with others. I was up most of the night playing aka tinkering around with this app.
