Howtoons: DIY Guide for Kids in Cartoon Form

Posted by Alex in Everything Else on August 28, 2007 at 1:49 am


This is super excellent: Howtoons by Saul Griffith, Nick Dragotta, and Joost Bonsen. What is it? It’s a DIY comic book to teach kids about science, engineering, art, and crafts: it contains how-to projects such as marshmallow shooter, turkey-baster flutes, and soda bottle submarine (above).

So wanna make a soda bottle submarine? You can print a downloadable PDF from the website (designed with help from Ryan McKinley and Phil Torrone):

    Looks cool, but the link seems down. Maybe all the hits from Neatorama readers overloaded their server?

    Works for me! Maybe just a little slowness - I'd expect a cool website like Howtoons to get a lot of press (and hence traffic).

    Is it just me or are those cartoon kids grotesque and scary-looing? They look like they just stepped off a pirate ship.
