Feed Their Imagination

Stuck for ideas of what to do with your kids this summer? Are you looking for something that’s fun-packed that will feed their imagination and expand their minds? Look no further…Robinsons Fruit & Barley has teamed up with the Science Museum to create ‘Robinsons Fruit & Barley Bright Ideas’, a competition for budding young inventors.

Robinsons Fruit & Barley is challenging kids to invent anything at all that will make life easier for them or their family. Whether they invent a machine that takes the dog for a walk, a robot that does homework or an instant ice cream maker for their bedroom they will soon be enthralled in the mind blowing world of inventions.

Always a favourite, Robinsons Fruit & Barley is set to become even more popular! Winners from each age group (7-10 and 11-14 years) will get a top prize of 500 to spend at the Science Museum, where they can get loads of goodies, including a potato-powered clock, super inventors kit or even a camera watch. The winners will also have his or her invention displayed at the Science Museum and will win a VIP trip to London for themselves and their family. There will also be ten runners-up prizes of £20 to spend at the Science Museum.

Here are some weird and wacky ideas to give them a helping hand:

• an umbrella to wear on the head
• a robot that does the ironing
• a portable seat that ties around the waist
• a dog walking machine!

Taking part is really easy! All you have to do is pick up a bright and funky entry form for your child at a Sainsbury’s store near you (from 21st August) or log onto the Robinsons Fruit & Barley Bright Ideas website (www.genius-at-work.com) to download an entry form. Then get your kids to draw their invention with a description of what it does, for their chance to get their name in the history books.

With so many great things in store, it’s clear to see why Robinsons is an ingenious choice for budding young inventors everywhere!
