Hi Everyone, We’ve done a few months of PLIX take and makes and they’re going great! A few reasons I think they’re doing well. I started boxing the kits up, PLIX-like, instead of low-budget in a paper lunch bag. I used lots of tissue paper and threw in more supplies than usual. I pushed the whole PLIX/MIT bit in every advertisement. And I offered 3 ways to participate: totally on their own/one Zoom session/ one open in-person session. So far, we’ve done Beautiful Symmetry and we’re doing Inflatables this month. Next month is Space Food. Instead of making up 12 kits and having 4 go, we’re making 12 and all 12 go! ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/mit2/original/2X/1/13a01a1583ea06e815c0b84f936b97ef4199d71d.jpeg) ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/mit2/original/2X/6/62548e1041f05b1a1d58d1e4742d5488d47e0132.jpeg) Anyone else working on something similar? Or anyone have any great ideas for Space Food as a take and make? ---

Well now that we are closed for programming for the month of January, I am definitely going to be doing something like this. Thanks for the photo of your kit elements. I am thinking that space food could use random extra odds and ends and see what they come up with…
