Hobbyists Zone

Are you concern that your kids are being over programmed or being too stimulated by computer games? Maybe making some do it yourself (DIY) projects together may stir your child's creative juices.  If your kids find creating something fun and having an end product of sorts rewarding, try Make, a gold mine of DIY projects, inspiration, how-tos that help you make the most of the technology in your life. This is a magazine, website, and community for hobbyists interested in complex projects about computers, electronics, robotics, metalworking, woodworking and other disciplines. Often the projects can be completed with cheap materials, including household items.

If your kids enjoy making things but find that Make has not enough material try Craft, a treasure trove where you can get great crafting how-tos, patterns, recipes, and awesome craft ideas.  This DIY site is all about transforming traditional craft.
