Bedtime Stories for Very Young Engineers will give engineers, parents and carers the skills, information and raw materials they need to create fun and engaging bedtime stories to introduce 2–5-year-olds to the world of making, improving and maintaining the human-made world around us.
Working with award-winning engineer and storyteller Dr Anna Ploszajski and public engagement professional Dr Steve Cross, Engineers from diverse engineering fields across the UK will write short bedtime stories about their area of engineering expertise that will enthral and inspire children.
The engineers will find that they can use their storytelling skills in the workplace, and in time, it is hoped that a new generation will become excited by engineering.
Find out more about the now completed project and hear from project lead Anna in our article with her top tips and reflections on the project.
