Are you creative? Do you often have big ideas but need help turning them into action?

We’ve got some news for you. 👀

The Kids Invent Stuff team have a new challenge for you young creators – they need your help to invent something that could be a Guinness World Records title attempt!

So what does that mean, exactly? 

🔎 Basically, they’re on the lookout for bold, brilliant inventions that they could set brand-new records with – or even beat existing ones.

Something that can be measured and that is fun to watch – the world’s biggest, fastest, tallest, longest! 💪

And what makes a great record-breaking idea?

  • It’s easy to measure or count✅
  • Others can try to beat it later✅
  • It’s exciting, surprising, and just plain fun ✅

Your invention might just kick off a brand-new world record – isn’t that exciting?!

Okay, but how much time do you have?

Well, the challenge closes on 31 July – so you need to get on it, FAST!

Kids Invent Stuff are no strangers to breaking a world record, by the way - last year they created the world's largest electric toothbrush EVER!

Over 8 times the normal size, this gigantic replica has a height of 2.008 metres (6 feet 7 inches).
This makes it even taller than a horse! 🐎

Feel inspired yet?

Happy inventing. 🤩
