\"Walt<\/p>\n

Ideas can be big or small, crazy or conservative, out-of-this-world or practical. Whatever it may be, an idea is an idea!<\/p>\n

If you think that your invention idea is too off-the-wall to ever be created, let us fill you in on a magical secret\u2026 even Walt Disney, one of the most creative people in history, had his fair share of wacky ideas!<\/p>\n

In fact, in January 1942, Walt Disney traveled to Washington D.C. to meet with chemical warfare and civil defense officials to check on a design that he had created for a gas mask\u2026 you read that right \u2013 a gas mask!<\/p>\n

This gas mask was unlike any other, because it was reminiscent of none other than Mickey Mouse. Disney\u2019s gas mask idea was created to find a Better Way to calm terrified children.<\/p>\n

Though it wasn\u2019t a normal invention idea from Walt Disney, he believed in his idea and worked hard to have his innovation come to life.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s this lesson that inventors from all over the world should follow. If you have an invention idea, believe in it, work on it and make it come to life!<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve got an invention or innovation, submit your idea\u00a0today<\/a>!<\/p>\n
