Mini Makers classes are designed specifically for our smallest builders, introducing robotics concepts with a very accessible approach. These classes are super fun, and we’ll bring all of the fun right to your group!

Children 2-5 years old will love working alongside their grown-ups to build a new robot each week.

WEEKLY

45-60 minutes

Each class begins with a story, featuring our signature Robot Foundry characters Adrien and DJ. The story will not only entertain the children but also introduce that day’s engineering concept and robot project. Then the children will build their own robot (with some help from their grown-ups), just like the story’s characters! Children bring their robots home after class to keep the fun (and learning) going!

All of our programs have been designed to travel, so we can bring everything right to schools, homes, community centers, and more!
