Markers and cardboard,
LED’s, tape, and glue,
3d printers and wires,
So much to do.
Thoughts in your head,
like bulbs lit up bright,
Inspiring thoughts,
become ideas taking flight.
Create a design,
to make something improve,
Bring it to life,
With parts that move.
Iterate, think,
iterate again,
keep working, keep trying,
the learning is the win.
Creating and making isn’t just play,
It’s not just a thing to pass the day.
It’s making the world a better place,
improving our lives as a human race.
Creativity waits
for the chance to do good,
to be heard by the world,
To be understood.
As the Maker takes piles
of unwanted things,
to create and recycle,
To build castles and wings.
For one Maker is fun,
but two, three, or even four,
when we collaborate with others,
makes our learning much more.
To get started right now,
you don’t have to wait,
There isn’t a test,
There isn’t a date.
Just open your mind and
let the creativity flow,
Don’t hold back your thoughts,
Just let your fears go.
Making is here,
inside you right now,
It’s not even something
you need to know how.
Just follow your heart,
and you can’t go wrong.
The beat that you hear,
Is the Maker’s song.
