Looking in on the tinkering school with eyes wide open,I felt a sentimental pull. Children need to feel that there is no limit to the things they can accomplish when they put their minds and hands together.The children find themselves capable and find value in their own and others abilities.Their is a message sent at the Tinkering School that the children who attend will hold onto for a lifetime.The message is simple. That they themselves can actually build things that work and of course,sometimes don't. They learn that with every step they make it is one more step towards the successful completion of a project or a learning from their mistakes moment.They learn that success is in the making and problems become solutions. All materials are there for their usage,whether for decoration or an essential part for a wheel for a racecar for without wouldn't work.Ideas are for spreading and putting their minds togetherthey can make or do anything.What the children gain from this that all possibilities are endless. I think they could rename the school to Empowering No Limits!

Very well thought out. Could use better paragraph structure. And I'm not sure what the big spaces are about.
