Head on over to Information Today to read my latest piece, Nintendo Labo Can Help Libraries Join the Maker Movement. 

The new Nintendo Labo is part video game, part construction set and is the company’s take on the growing world of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) learning and programming. It’s run on video-game hardware, but provides an immersive experience, signaling a new direction for a company that is always innovating. 

I’ve had a great time building the various bits and pieces of Nintendo Labo with my family. I think there’s some huge potential in Labo when it comes to groups completing a task together. It’s not only a fun experience to build a Labo kit but it also requires attention to detail and some tinkering. Enjoy!
