Tinker Toy Lab
In this hands-on maker class, kids become inventors, artists, and builders all at once! Each week they’ll dive into a brand-new creative build project, learning new skills and experimenting with different tools and materials as they create their own toys. They’ll craft giant wearable masks, playful cardboard pinball machines, homemade musical instruments, and art-making inventions like old-school animation spinners and giant doodle machines. Every session is packed with tinkering, crafting, and making things that move, light up, and surprise.

Maker Invention Studio is for kids ready to dig in and build real working inventions from scratch! In this hands-on makers class, students explore electronics, coding, mechanics, and creative problem-solving while learning to use real prototyping tools. Kids will design mechanisms, build their own circuits, and program microcontroller computers using Scratch and Python. They’ll assemble and test an electric motor, create electronic instruments, build interactive light shows, develop motion-sensing gadgets, and even train their first AI. Along the way, they’ll take apart everyday objects to see how they work, design their own games and user interfaces, experiment with sensors, and solve real engineering challenges all while learning to think like real engineers. No experience required, just curiosity and creativity!

We're working on making classes that blend art, design, tinkering, and playful engineering to help kids explore how things work, experiment with ideas, and build confidence as problem solvers, builders, and storytellers.

Our approach is inspired by the idea that the best learning happens through projects, passion, peers, and play. Kids are encouraged to try things out, share ideas, and build things that matter to them — sparking curiosity that carries into everything they do.
