Are you looking for creative ways to grow the imagination, curious learning, social and motor skills in your little learners? We have just the program. Come check out our Mini Makers classes! Children ages 2-5 will be able to participate in age-appropriate guided play and hands-on learning opportunities at the studio with us. Our program has been developed to incorporate creative play, social interactions and community building, exploratory learning, along with discovering fine and gross motor skills.
Mini Makers will be offered two Tuesday’s and one Saturday a month for all our small friends and is an experience-based program. At these events, our Minis will be enjoying free play among the themed stations, story/lesson time, a guided craft activity, and more, alongside their grown up. These sessions are designed for young students who aren’t quite ready for a drop-off event or those grown ups who just want to have fun with them too! Registration for Mini Makers is open throughout the semester. Click here to jump to the class listing.
Each class has been planned to specifically include targeted skills that help our youngest learners grow both socially and academically. Our goal is to facilitate curiosity and introduce children to classroom learning in a fun and creative setting.
Such great fun, but also skillful things to do
The farm set up for the children to play with was absolutely wonderful! They thought of such great fun, but also skillful things to do. And so beautifully made!
The creativeness of the experience and the kindness and attentiveness of the staff will be remembered. My daughter and I both loved it!
Meaningful and magical
Highly, highly recommend the TR Makers Co. Mini Makers classes. We have gone to almost every session and each one is such a fun and unique experience. The teachers go out of their way to create a space that is both meaningful and magical. My daughter gets to explore hands-on stations that foster her imagination while also catering to her education. We will continue to be a part of this program as long as it is running!
Such a thoughtful and creative space for toddlers!
