Unleash your child's inner inventor at our Little Monster Maker Space! This creativity hub is where imagination meets innovation, inviting young minds to think, tinker, and transform ideas into reality.
In this hands-on workshop environment, children become true makers as they explore the exciting process of creation from start to finish. They'll plan their projects, design with purpose, build with determination, solve problems with creativity, and redesign with newfound knowledge—just like real engineers and artists!
Our Maker Space is stocked with an ever-changing array of materials and tools that inspire children to:
– Dream up wild and wonderful creations
– Develop critical thinking skills through the design process
– Experience the joy of making something with their own hands
– Learn that mistakes are just stepping stones to better ideas
Whether building fantastical contraptions, crafting unique art pieces, or engineering solutions to playful challenges, children discover that they are capable of bringing their ideas to life through persistence and imagination.
The Little Monster Maker Space was made possible by the generous support of the GPD Employees' Foundation, helping to inspire Akron's next generation of creators, innovators, and problem-solvers.
