Is your child inventive and creative?  Does s/he have a great invention idea that would solve a nagging problem?  Consider signing your child up for the 2020-21 Invention Convention.  

Participating in Invention Convention is a great opportunity for all kids to sharpen their creative problem solving skills. Through the Invention League's Invention Convention Program your young inventor will be challenged to identify a problem, research an original solution, build a prototype and develop it into a marketable invention; he or she will evolve from inventor to an entrepreneur. 

Students can work alone or in teams of two. Team members do not need to be in the same grade or in the same school.  Due to Covid-19, judging for the Invention Convention will be virtual this year.  Participants will be expected to create and submit a Pitch Video that tells judges about the invention.   All video pitches need to be submitted by the April 30th deadline.  

Parents, get your child started on an invention for the 2020-21 Invention Convention by signing up using the link below:



The deadline to sign up is Friday, February 19th.
