Give the kit that brings learning, problem solving, and the joy of invention to any kid (and parent) anywhere
Tinkering Labs Catalyst projects get kids’ hands and minds moving with electric motor prototypes that allow you to build and test out projects using real hardware and tools. There’s no “right” way to use the pieces of a Tinkering Labs Catalyst. Instead of providing step-by-step instructions, they provide cards with the basic fundamentals on how the parts work together, then challenge you to build your own creations!  Some parts are custom-designed, and some are what you can find inside your very own home. Catalysts are not a one-time activity or a single project. They’re meant to be made and unmade and remade over and over!
 
 
Best Ever Healthy Thanksgiving Recipes
 
 
Where culinary art meets the imagination…
What separates 1st To Roll Catering from other catering companies, is not only their delicious and healthy cuisine, but that they are a boutique production catering company that is family owned and operated. That means you get treated like family, not like a customer! They take great pride in their company, from preparation to presentation. On top of that, the chefs are extremely accommodating and very respectful to the entire crew. The cuisine is always farmer’s market driven; only using the highest quality, fresh, and local ingredients. Highly recommend!
