Program Idea: 16-bit Pixel Art
Pixel art is great activity for both the guys and gals. Using plastic fuse beads and an iron, teens can re-create their favorite video game characters and learn a little bit about how their favorite classic game heroes were created: pixel by wee pixel. There are many tutorials online about making 8/16 bit pixel art but once you get the hang of it, all you will need to do is look at someone's completed design, save the image, print it out and use it as your spatial guide.
Here is an article (.pdf) I wrote (from the original 4YA site) about pixel art and where to find great designs.
