Coming up with my final question..

I've decided to expand on child inventors.
So I've come up with different possibilities that i could choose from:
Famous adult inventors ---compared to---> child inventors
OR
child inventors----compared to -------> normal kids
if i chose the first one, then it would be easier to compare as there would be more information that i could actually find out about. And also i could compare both sides of inventions with a survey.
but if i chose the second one, then i could talk about how their lives differ(if they do), and maybe how the child inventors were inspired and such.
I have chosen to choose the first one, because it may increase my knowledge of inventors.
So my question for the inquiry topic is, How do adult inventions differ to child-made inventions? (quality and useful wise + creative wise)
