What We Do: We are the first and largest makerspace for kids in the world, and we run programs, camps and parties on topics like Minecraft, Coding, and Robotics. Our goal is to help kids ages 7-12 move from being consumers to creators. Learn more about our approach here.
In each MakerKids program, your child will:
- Make friends with like-minded kids
- Learn 21st century skills (confidence, creativity, etc)
- Learn technical skills (e.g. coding)
- Make something awesome
MakerKids was named Best Kids’ Workshops by Toronto Life Magazine and one of the top ten awesome birthday parties in Toronto by Today’s Parent. Thousands of kids have participated in our programs. In the past we have done Content and Curriculum Development for clients like Intel and 3D Systems, and Professional Development services for clients such as the Toronto Public Library. We’ve been featured in major media such as Wired, CTV and the Globe and Mail, and have spoken at SXSW, Maker Faire, MakerCon, and more. Our Board of Advisors includes Dale Dougherty (CEO of Maker Media, MAKE Magazine and Maker Faire) and Massimo Banzi (CEO of Arduino). We are proud to be a Certified B Corporation.
