My Daughter the Inventor





McKenzie had to create a brand-new invention this week for the annual Nora Davis 5th grade Invention Convention. Students create unique inventions and then showcase them at the convention. It's a really neat idea that involves a lot of imagination, creativity, and critical thinking.

McKenzie decided to invent an organizer for your laptop. It straps around the top of the laptop (while still giving screen visibility) and has pockets on the backside to keep pencils, paperclips, etc close at hand. She said she designed it with teachers in mind, because she knows how hard I work :). She designed and sewed the whole thing herself (minus a few little pieces she needed help with). I am really proud of her. She can sew just as good as I can. Maybe she'll keep inventing and make us millions - ha!
