Makedo

Makedo is an open-ended system of tools for creative cardboard construction. The Makedo system is made up of seven elements that allow cardboard to be sawn, folded and connected without sharp edges. Screws and screwdrivers join up to six layers of corrugated cardboard, while a fold roller perforates lines for shaping. The tools are moulded from polypropylene, ABS and steel, and are sold as single tools, home kits or classroom kits. Creations can range from small handheld objects to large group builds. Makedo is intended to help children repurpose everyday cardboard through play.

Makedo Toolkit

Makedo Toolkit is a reusable set of tools for creative cardboard construction. The toolkit holds a Safe-saw, a Scrudriver, twenty-one Scru connectors and seven Scru XL connectors in a resealable pouch. With these three tool types, children from the age of four can cut cardboard, punch holes and join layers securely. Scissors, blades and tape place safety and function limits on young makers, so the toolkit was developed to remove those limits. Found cardboard can be built into objects of any size, alone or in groups, in classrooms, maker spaces, museums and homes.

700kids Balance Bike

700kids Balance Bike is a balance bike designed for young children who are learning to ride. The frame is formed in one piece by gas-assisted injection molding and made of nylon reinforced with glass fiber, which keeps the body light, sturdy and smooth on the surface. A ring-shaped footrest lets children rest their feet while gliding. The body is black, while the handles, footrests and cushion are yellow to guide riding and balancing. Assembly requires only connecting the handle head to the body.
