Many kids are using technology to spend their free time. Read about two kids here.

Frank Smith, age 11, New York

I used my savings to buy a 3D printer. It was so exciting! I began designing (设计) things even before it came. I started with simple designs. One was a pencil box for my sister. Then I created more difficult ones.

I have a love for 3D printing. It allowed me to help my community. I worked with Good Karma Engineering. We created reusable masks (口罩) with 3D printed designs.

Kelly Rogers, age 12, Hawaii

My aunt suggested science livestreams (直播). I could learn from scientists all over the world. My new friends teach me the importance of environment.

The more I learn, the more I want to help make the world a better place. I’ve started by trying to live a green life. I cut down on my single use plastics. I ride a bike to school.

	Do you like listening to music while doing homework? If you do, you will like Le Pen. With a music player inside, Le Pen plays music while you are writing on paper. The music stops when you stop writing. So if you want to enjoy more of your favourite songs, keep on writing.
