Why Makedo?

The awesomeness of Makedo is that we learn by doing; creating, experimenting, failing, thinking, recreating and maybe solving. With Makedo, learners can explore their ideas and hypotheses in an open-ended, hands on way that engenders a deeper understanding of concepts with application to real-life scenarios.

  • Fun

    Makedo is a super fun, hands-on making experience that ignites open-ended, immersive play.

  • Collaborative

    Makedo experiences bring people together to create memorable moments.

  • Sustainable

    Makedo tools are reusable and the making material is upcycled cardboard.

  • Educational

    Makedo tools promote imagination, communication, creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking.

  • Safe

    Makedo tools are custom designed to be safe and easy to use (global safety standards tested to age 3+).

    Adaptable for every age & stage.

    We've really enjoyed watching the 2 & 4yr olds use these in different ways. Not having seen any preconceived ideas or images for their use, the 2yr old started stacking the scru's, realising that he could go higher if he attached the first one to the scrudriver. The adults have joined in with their own creations & we're loving that the possibilities seem endless. We'll level up soon & add the corner pieces & rings.

    Great Intro to Tools and Building

    Bought for 3 & 4 year old grandsons. They needed a little more help because of their age, but they absolutely loved it. Spent morning learning how to use tools. Spent afternoon making their first project - a snowman. They can’t wait to decorate it! Only difficulty I had was finding thin cardboard. The boxes I had were too thick for their little hands.

    Great for the family

    Great kit for family fun. The only limitation seems to be what ideas you can come up with to build and how much cardboard you can get your hands on.
