Parent Testimonial
My daughter loved creating duct tape flip flops with Galileo's great and patient instructor. She experimented with several strap styes and ended up making two pairs. She was able to take what she learned in class to continue creating and innovating on her own.

What You'll Do

This Summer Title Ends August 30th, 2020

Step up your duct tape design skills with a pair of durable DIY sandals. Start from the ground up with a sturdy, water-resistant sole, crafted from cardboard and covered in colorful tape. Learn duct tape construction techniques to fashion straps across the top, then BE REFLECTIVE as you try them on, testing for fit and tweaking for comfort. Embellish your sweet sandals with permanent-marker patterns, duct-tape decals or your own personal footwear logo!

NOTE: Kids will likely need a little extra time after class to finish their second sandal.

While we offer a similar class for older kids, the pacing and content of this class is carefully calibrated for rising 4th–5th graders.
