It might be a really big job, but I think it is a great idea anyway!  My kids wanted to patent their invention last year too.  And they were so upset when they saw other people with a similar idea recently!  They said, "Man, we should have gotten that patent!"  But we talked a lot about it, they researched it on the internet, and even considered calling a local place that does things with patents.  I always encouraged them, and just let them discover the process on their own.  I think it is better to let them see the obstacles on their own, and not have us tell them it's too hard.  It's great that your team is that excited about their project!!

Does anyone know a streamlined and reliable way to Patent our team's invention?
I'd like to show them how to patent their ideas for the future too.
