FroBow
Inventor: Kirsten
Invented at age: 10

She had a problem: Kirsten noticed her dog playing with a Frisbee. She thought it would be really neat to make a flying disc into another invention. However, a flying disc is just an ordinary toy to play with. There is no functionality to playing with a Frisbee.

She had an idea: She realized she can create many games with just one toy. She created a message sending game, where you can send a stealth message by quickly writing a note and passing it right on over to your friend with one simple throw.

She developed it: Kirsten took a Frisbee, a piece of paper, a marker, a sponge, a piece of a binder spacer and some tape.

Her idea was a hit: Kirsten was the 2005 Chester Award winner in the By Kids for Kids Xerox National Invention Competition.

Kirsten likes to do gymnastics and her favorite food is artichoke. Her favorite animal is a turtle and she is involved in the author's in action club at school.
