FAMILY DAY EVENT: PRODUCT REDESIGN

TIME
11:00 am
LOCATION
The Rotunda, 1515 Douglas St.

Everyday Product Redesign Challenge with ANCORD Design Co.

Drop in and unleash your creativity! In this hands-on workshop, kids will redesign everyday objects—like water bottles, backpacks, or chairs—through drawing, sketching, and colouring to make them more sustainable, user-friendly, and innovative.

Using design-thinking principles, kids will:

Empathize – Identify challenges with common products.
Define – Choose a problem to solve.
Ideate – Sketch and brainstorm creative solutions.
Prototype – Bring ideas to life using craft materials.
Share – Showcase their ideas in a Product Innovation Fair.

This low-barrier, drop-in activity makes it easy for families to participate at their own pace. Younger kids can colour and decorate, while older children can develop functional concepts through sketching and optional model-building.

Final designs will be displayed for festival attendees to explore. Join us to imagine, draw, and innovate—no experience needed, just creativity!
