Let's Get Inventin'

Let's Get Inventin' is a New Zealand reality television series that takes young inventors (aged 8 – 17) and helps them to create inventions.

In Let's Get Inventin' over seven seasons 91 Kiwi kids with ideas have been teamed up with some of the greatest inventors in the country to bring their inventions to life.

Rocket-powered ice skates, a six legged walking car and a jet-powered hover skateboard are some of the inventions with twelve having secured official patents.

At the end of the series, the New Zealand public chooses their favorite invention for a prize package totalling $10,000; a trip to the UK; and a ride in the Aquada.

The BBC produced two versions of the New Zealand format: Whizz Whizz Bang Bang (2007) and Ed and Oucho's Excellent Inventions (2009 - 2010), which ran for two seasons.
