swissnex Boston/Consulate of Switzerland invites children of all ages to its annual Sustainable Kids Event 2011 where they can build their own birdhouses, experiment with energy and construct a futuristic city from their own imaginations. This fun learning event is the vision of the 2000 Watt Society: attaining a balance in energy use between industrialized and developing countries, enabling everyone to enjoy a suitable standard of living.

The workshops kids can have fun with:

Be a urban planner! Create your dream hose out of recycling materials and let us build perfect the future city!

Design and construct a birdhouse out of pre-cut wood and experiment with different isolation materials. How does the temperature change using different materials? Create your perfect birdhouse and take it home.

Find out how energy efficient our gadgets (Iphone, Laptops, DS, ect.) are by using a watt meter. Small changes make a big difference when it comes to energy efficiency!!

Clean up a city full of junk and obstacles! Use a fleet of remote control trucks from recycled materials to haul away the mess!
