The word "design" is often misunderstood: many think the more hi-tech a material is, the better a product’s design. In fact, soil was the very first “design” material, and hands are the designer’s most commonly used tools. With these two simple elements, we can better understand the true origins of design. In this activity, children will gain a better understanding of the world and release their creative potential.
