… building with friends and the satisfaction of creating something with your hands … We were so excited to find out about your program!
— Megan K.
… a unique experience… great way to engage the mind of a five year old. He’s so proud of his art. It is on display in our living room.
— Cara O.
I MADE THAT MYSELF! That was awesome.
— Max
I liked Auden getting into tools in a way that didn’t seem “gendered” (i.e. for boys) … Kids had a blast yesterday! Love those bird houses, SO CUTE!!!
— Janelle B.
Mila had a great time!!! Trying something new that she wouldn’t experience at home… Thanks for making this happen!
— Tali P.
Great chance for them to use their hands and think about how things are made...
So important for understanding the world.
— Chandler M.
It’s rare to see something for little kids that involves actual tools and real work. I love it. I think all kids (and adults) should be able to build. :)
— Tiffani C.
Thank you so much
and LOVE what you
are doing. Wren had a blast and we are still playing the
xylophone!
— Emily Z.
I love KIDS BUILD! Can I come back and make more cool stuff?
