Hands-On STEM Workshops and Maker Camps for Kids

My workshops are built on three core pillars: Let's Make, where we build cool things using STEM concepts; Let's Break, where we take things apart to see how they work; and Tools & Techniques, where we learn to use real tools safely.

April was a whirlwind of activity! We welcomed 60 kids, explored concepts from Ohm's law to 3D printing, took apart computers, and even introduced power tools to our six-year-old tinkerers. Every day was about hands-on learning and collaboration.

May was another incredible month. We launched our first-ever parent-child sessions, including a fantastic event at Yahoo India, and developed five brand new DIY kits. It was a month full of building, learning, and family bonding.

Planning for the summer? Here is a look at our summer class schedule. I host sessions on different topics throughout the week to give kids a chance to build real gadgets, learn new skills, and meet new friends.

This flyer for our Drawing Machine workshop shows what kids will learn. They get to assemble their own 3D-printed machine and understand the mechanics of gears and fulcrums to create complex patterns.

For our more experienced tinkerers, I offer a Level 2 3D Printing class. Here, they learn advanced skills like how to change and unclog a nozzle, allowing them to print more complex objects and bring their wildest ideas to life.

Motors and boats, what's not to love? In this special two-day class, kids learn all about propulsion and gears by building their very own 3D-printed motorboat from scratch.

In our Gears & Pinions class, kids assemble their own wind-up car. It's a fantastic way to learn about ratchets and gear ratios, and we always end with a fun drag race to test their creations.

A little pop quiz during a class session. I ask the kids about different engine types, 3D printing, and the mechanics of a bicycle. It's a fun way to reinforce the concepts we learn through hands-on building.
