Subbuteo – Design Your Own Legend!
Group:
Primary (KS2)
Topic:
DT
Duration:
90 mins
Location:
Onsite
During this DT session, pupils begin in the galleries, where they find out the fascinating story of how local resident Peter Adolph took a humble button and an old army blanket and created a phenomenon!
Back in the Learning Room, children paint 3D printed Subbuteo players before charting the development of the game’s design, from card to plastic. They experiment with their own Subbuteo flats, predicting and testing which buttons to use to make the most effective players and are then presented with a range of materials from which to design a brand new game!
