Step 2: Be Visionary
Imagine something that does not yet exist. Once you’ve found everything on the list,
use your collection to create a picture on the floor.
Step 3: Be Collaborative
Ask someone else at home if they can tell what your picture is and ask for their ideas
to make it even better (you can add more objects if you want!).
Step 4: Be Reflective
How did you choose to make that picture? What object inspired you most? How did
that someone else sharing their ideas improve your picture?
Step 4: Be Determined
Time to embrace one last challenge. Set a timer for 3 minutes and put all the objects
back where they came from before the timer runs out!
Help the rubber chicken hatch some new ideas for how to pass the time.
Write a letter, draw a picture or do both!

Invention convention
Your Mission:
STEP 1: Generate ideas for a challenge you would like to solve. An example could be “putting on
my socks in the morning” or “reaching a book on the top shelf.”
When you’re done, circle the one you want to design an invention for!
STEP 2: Design a prototype of an Invention that could solve the challenge you chose.
A Prototype is a model of something you want to create; it’s not meant to be perfect. It’s
meant to help you get your ideas together and create a starting place from which you can
build. Sketch 2-3 designs of your invention prototype:
Invention Title:
_____________________________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________________
INNOVATE ON! Using craft supplies from your home (even with just paper and tape!), bring your
prototype sketches to life! This might not be a fully functional prototype, but you can experiment with
how you might build your invention in real life!
Is there a VISIONARY person in your life that you'd like to recognize? Create an award
for them and present it to them! You can send them a picture, show them on Zoom, or
give it to them in person if you're able.
Stuck on what style of award you want to design? Why not try a trophy (pictured
here), a medal, or a certificate! You can simply draw them on a piece of paper OR
find things around your house to build them. For example, all you need for a simple
medal is a piece of paper cut into a circle (or a visionary shape of your choosing),
and a piece of string! You can even include WHY you think they are so visionary.
INNOVATE ON! Create other awards for family and friends that you think deserve some recognition!
Design and create a personality and story for our mascot, the Rubber Chicken! Use the blank
chicken canvases below and your VISIONARY ideas to create outfits for up to three chickens
in your story. Think outside of the box and dress your chickens up in clothes (shirt, pants,
wizard robe), accessories (hat, jewelry, magical stuff), and maybe even add a sidekick (baby
chick, unicorn, dragon)!
Generate Ideas! Use this outline to figure out what each chicken’s personality will be.
Three words that describe their Three words that describe their Three words that describe their

Galileo’s mascot, the Rubber Chicken (RC), has special magic powers - it can make campers
ooh and ahh, and brings joy to every space it enters. RC helps out at camp in so many ways
and is a special part of the camp community. Use your VISIONARY powers to create a mascot
of your very own! Generate ideas on who your mascot would be and why, and then draw it out
in the trading card template to create your very own mascot trading card! We have an example
of Pascal the RC’s trading card to help you.
Generate Ideas:
• Is it an animal, person, character or • What is its name?
a creature never seen before? • How does it support your
• What kind of special powers does it home/community as a mascot?
have?
Mascot Brainstorm:
Why did the kids go to science What did the left eye say
school on the mountain? to the right eye?
To get a higher education! Between us, something smells!
*Note* This is a repeat-after-me song! The person leading the song will sing the BOLD words
and campers or anyone following along will repeat right after!

Find and circle the words in the word bank! Once you’ve found all of the words, pick 3
of the ideas from the word bank to practice at home!
Example: Try something new today, show a talent to someone in your house, and
celebrate a mistake you made!
INNOVATE ON! Make some of your own codes for your family and friends to try and crack!
We know that being a superhero takes COURAGE. Use the space below to draw
yourself as a superhero! Imagine what superpowers you would have and what your
costume would look like. Maybe you have a sidekick that helps you or a special way to
get around (like a plane)!
BE REFLECTIVE as you build on your design each role? What is or isn't working?
