[Lab] Squishy Circuits

[Emily Daniels]

Yeah that was the first workshop I ran for the kids at the Lowertown
Community Resource Centre last year for Artengine! Such a cool project and
Dr. Thomas is an awesome resource for people interested in teaching kids
technology and engineering concepts. Thanks for sharing!
