๐ธ Parents, letโs be honestโฆ
Youโve built 92 Lego towers, explained 14 broken remotes, and somehow ended up in a glitter-based science project. Again. Itโs time to channel all that creative chaos into something actually fun.
โจ Welcome to MakeTime for Kids.
Itโs the one afternoon a month where we show your kid a soldering iron (safely), show them what a robot actually does, and prove that magnets are basically sorcery. Youโll pretend to understand it all and theyโll love every second.
Hereโs what the event typically includes:
๐น Programming Station โ Real logic, real fun, no pressure.
๐น Robots + Circuits โ Our tech tables are ready for minds to blow.
๐น Woodshop Kits โ Hammering, sanding, and full sensory satisfaction.
๐น Electronics & Soldering โ New kits and guided hands-on magic.
๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ Drop in anytime between 1 and 4PM. Just $10 per kid/parent duo.
Weโre volunteer-run and passionate about building cool stuff with curious kids.
๐ Where: Makerspace Nanaimo
๐ When: Saturday, June 14 | 1:00โ4:00PM
๐ต Cost: $10 per child/adult combo
๐ก Who: Ages 5โ14 (but everyoneโs welcome)
๐ ๏ธ Come tinker. Come learn. Come send off the season in style.
Weโll be back in the fall but this is the one you donโt want to miss.
๐ Tag a parent. Bring a friend. Bribe your kid with โrobots.โ
Letโs make this one count.
