Two sixth graders at the Epstein Hillel School in Marblehead won an invention contest competing against kids from across North America.

Alice Dunn and Charlie Sobelman joined more than 300 kids across the continent in competing to create an invention to improve the lives of people with disabilities. It's sponsored by an Israeli organization called ADI which stands for the Advancement of People with Disabilities and Rehabilitation for All.

"That's where they house residents with multiple disabilities, and their representative comes to schools and educates children," explains Miri Sharon, a Jewish studies teacher at the school who helped to enter the girls.
