Embrace your inner toymaker in this fantastically fun class. Transform ordinary materials into extraordinary playthings as you design and create a new twisting, twirling, high-flying or magically moving toy every day of the week.
BE VISIONARY as you invent your own characters and setting for a magnificent magnetic scene that moves like magic. Engineer a pair of turning toys—a dizzyingly fast spinning top and a mix-and-match facial expression twister—learning drawing basics to embellish them with optical patterns or moody features. BE DETERMINED to practice paper folding and cardboard construction skills, then have a blast crafting a propulsive rubber band-powered cannon and a cool custom spaceship. Wrap up the week with a ton of new know-how and an array of playful projects.
Note: These single-day sessions offer more than just imagination-igniting activities—they’re immersive experiences full of delightful details, including interactive games, songs, snacks (see Materials, below) and more! designed to build community, bolster confidence and deliver loads of camp-away-from-camp fun.
The curriculum combines some of our most popular toy-making projects. If you’ve taken our single-session Rubber Band Cannon, Magnetic Scenes, Expression Twisters, Twirling Tops or Stellar Spaceships classes, your child will be familiar with some of the week’s activities—and have the chance to put a new spin on a project they’ve done before.
