Abstract :
The observation of Kids´ Club indicates the development of methods, activities and tools from the beginning of Kids´ Club in 2001 to the present. The key elements of Kids´ Club that were presented at the first stage are still valid, but novel forms, emphases and working tools have appeared as a result of action research. The Kids´ Club concept has diversified from the original Kids´ Club technology club and research laboratory to encompass schools, companies and international cooperation.
