Nurture your child’s inner designer through a hands-on challenge that sparks curiosity, courage, and creative thinking!

They will get to think outside the box, explore bold ideas and activate their innate designer instincts. Nothing is impossible – the limit is one’s imagination! Children who complete a challenge will receive a STEM Challenge Cards Set sponsored by the James Dyson Foundation (while stocks last). This is a satellite event of the Design Education Summit 2025 that is co-organised by Children’s Museum Singapore and DesignSingapore Council with support from the James Dyson Foundation.
