Could
you use a hands-free dog brusher?
Butler
School has the product for you
Creativity and ingenuity were on full display Jan. 26 as Butler School
fourth-grade Discovery students pitched their inventions to friends and family.
“Sit back and relax,” one student told a captive audience as she
introduced them to her Personal Pet Petter. “No batteries needed.”
Students in Michelle Schultz’s Discovery Class were challenged to invent
a product, build a prototype and write an audio ad promoting it.
They completed their month-long project on Jan. 26 when they presented
their inventions to friends and family at an Invention Convention.
Their sales pitches resembled infomercials, promising a
buy-one-get-one-free deal if they ordered now.
Products included a Touchless Duster, a Desk Extender and a Tissue Tote.
The inventor of the hands-free dog brusher even offered proof that her
contraption works by showing prospective buyers a video of her own dog walking
through the contraption of PVC pipe and brushes.
