15 Genius Inventions By Kids – and How They Became Real Objects

Kids have brilliant imaginations. You see it when they busy themselves with their toys, creating stories in their mind, and asking questions that leave you spellbound. Presenting 15 inventions by little kids that you will leave you stunned, awed, and longing to own the gadgets right away!

What do you usually do with your child’s drawings and craft work? Most parents stick them on fridge doors and walls, or display them in the living-room. But do you know what your child could achieve if these thoughts were actually given shape and form?

Recently, British designer and inventor Dominic Wilcox started what he calls the “INVENTORS!” Project. He asked over 450 children in the U.K. to share their ideas for inventions. Of the numerous submissions, he chose 60 and got a group of local makers to actually manufacture them within 4 weeks. Imagine the delight on the children’s faces when they saw what they had dreamed of and described turned into a real-life object!

Sit back and check out these inventions conceptualised by young kids. It’s time to give flight to imaginations!
