Design Squad Nation (another from PBS) is a fantastic site where kids can design their own inventions through drawings they can create on the site. They can also upload pictures or prototypes. Students can also view inventions of others. Really fun and interesting to look at.

They also have two neat interactives, Fidgit and String Thing.

what’s Fidgit?
DESIGNiT, BUILDiT, FIDGiT is an exciting puzzle game where you solve challenges and save tiny creatures called Fidgits! Think fast and manipulate blocks, springs, funnels, and other objects to bring the Fidgits home safely.
Features:
-Your Fidgits bounce and roll with a real physics engine!
-A library of brain-teasing challenges
-Make your own custom levels, and share with friends
-Unlock new materials: paint buckets, tubes, pendulums, and more!
-It’s sandbox-style play with countless combinations
what’s String Thing?
Make your own music! Customize a virtual string instrument to play a song you write. Choose from three different instrument sounds. Then add a funky beat and play it back.
