| STEAM Club ages 5/6 |
| STEAM Club (Ages 5–6) This class is all about giving kids the space to be creative, independent, and a little messy. We keep hands busy for 40 minutes by testing out ideas with LEGO® Early Simple Machines and crafting with everyday maker supplies. It’s a great way to practice fine motor skills and creative thinking, while showing kids how they can use ordinary materials to make extraordinary things. We hope to spark ideas they can bring back to your own recycling bin at home! To give them room to really dive in, some weeks are purely experiential, some projects take two classes to finish, and other times they’ll have a creation to bring home.

ClickTeam Game Design Level 1: Ages 10+ Wednesdays 6:00-6:50 9/16-10/7Tuition: $55, or pair with the Arduino class at 5:00 and this class is $40 In this 4-week starter block, students dive into 2D game design using Clickteam Fusion’s visual event editor, mastering movement logic, collision detection, and scoring mechanics as they build classic, playable games like Pong from the ground up on dedicated computers. Perfect as a standalone mini-course or a high-energy add-on following our 5:00 PM Arduino block, makers get hands-on experience in a supportive, small-group environment. At LabSpace, we believe that when we learn new skills, we gain the opportunity to share our passions with others—so this session will be team-taught by our adult Lead Instructor alongside our experienced youth mentor! ClickTeam Game Design Level 2: Wednesdays 6:00-6:50 10/21-11/18 (5 sessions)Tuition: $65 or $45 if you are also enrolled in the Arduino Class Take your 2D games to the next level! In this 5-week follow-up block, students expand on their Level 1 foundations by transforming simple arcade mechanics into full multi-stage games. Makers will learn to add title and game-over screens, build multi-level progression, and introduce fun arcade elements like bouncing hazards, collectible power-ups, and custom sound effects. Designed as a friendly, step-by-step next step for returning students working on dedicated stations. (Prerequisite: Level 1 Clickteam Fusion or previous Clickteam experience at LabSpace). At LabSpace, we believe that when we learn new skills, we gain the opportunity to share our passions with others—so this session will be team-taught by our adult Lead Instructor alongside our experienced youth mentor!

| Craft Days at LabSpace Fall 2026 |
| Join us for kid friendly crafts! We’ll have everything ready to go, so you can just come and create with your children. Each morning we’ll have a couple of crafts ready for you to come in and make your own. We’ll gear projects for ages 4-9, but older and younger siblings are welcome. Our craft morning series is a wonderful opportunity for kids to explore their creativity in a fun and supportive environment. Please note that this is not a teacher-led activity. While we’ll provide samples, craft supplies, and a mentor to answer questions, parents will be responsible for guiding their children through the projects. We can’t wait to see what amazing creations you and your children come up with! Please register by Wednesday 5:00 before craft day. If we don’t have enough registrations by then, we will cancel for that week. Tuition: $6 for the first child with a max of $12 per family. Friday, Sept 11 – Autumn Textures and Forest Engineering Friday, Oct 9 – Autumn Shadows & Festive Masks Friday, Nov 13- Harvest Mazes and Migration

| Junior Engineers: Robotics & The Power Grid Journey (Grades 2–4) |
| Introduce your child to the world of engineering with LabSpace’s new 10-week STEM Club focused on the physics of energy. Designed specifically for younger builders, students will kick off the semester with a fun, hands-on introduction to gears using LEGO® Simple Machines kits. This builds a friendly, step-by-step foundation in how everyday mechanics work before we bridge those concepts into introductory electronics and robotics. Using a dynamic mix of LEGO® FLL Explore SUPERPOWERED kits and intuitive SPIKE™ Essential coding blocks, students will discover how we capture, store, and use power in the real world. With a strict limit of 8 students per session, every child works at their own dedicated workstation—ensuring plenty of individual guidance and a supportive environment where every student can succeed. To help celebrate the science concepts learned in class, students will also build and keep several hands-on engineering projects throughout the semester. Because this is a brand-new, interactive curriculum, our instructors will be actively tailoring the pace and tweaking the projects to match the unique creativity and skill level of the group. Class Max: 8 students Registering more than one child in classes this fall? Please choose invoice when you check out and contact Miss Annette at Annette@LabSpaceRobotics.com. We’ll figure out your siblling discounts and let you know prices.

| Make a Halloween Snowglobe |
| Join us as we explore viscosity–we need our snow globe glitter to drift down, so we have to make our water more viscous, but it still needs to be clear. We’ll do some experimenting and then we’ll create a Halloween-themed scene for inside our globe! This workshop is appropriate for ages 5+, but kids 8 and under will need a hands-on adult helper. Admit 1: $10 Admit 2: $18 Fri, Oct 9 5:30 |

| 3D Cardboard Dala Horse Craft |
| 3D Cardboard Dala Horse Craft Come make your own 3D cardboard Dala horse! We’ll start with a quick look at a map of Scandinavia and a brief chat about how these traditional Swedish wooden horses came to be. Then, we’ll dive straight into crafting! Using paint pens, dot-stamping, and yarn for manes, kids will have full studio time to assemble and decorate their models—and maybe even make a second one if time permits. This is a relaxed, multi-age craft designed so children can work at their own pace. Parents are very welcome to sit in and build or paint along with their kids!

| Messy Engineering: Gingerbread Houses at LabSpace! |
|
We’ve opened another session on Thursday morning.Join us for a fun, creative, and deliciously chaotic holiday tradition! At LabSpace, we always remind our makers: we don’t eat in the lab, which means this workshop is 100% about the fun of building, designing, and testing your architectural limits. This isn’t about creating a Pinterest-perfect showpiece—it’s process-art and messy structural engineering at its finest! Kids will use graham crackers as building blocks, royal icing as “mortar,” and a mountain of candies and cereals to decorate their one-of-a-kind holiday creations. They get all the hands-on building fun, and you get the finished masterpiece without the sticky kitchen clean-up! Note for Families: *This is a family-led, team-building activity! LabSpace staff will be floating around to keep supplies stocked, offer quick structural tips, and keep things tidy, but parents and kids will work together at their own pace to design and build. * Because royal icing engineering gets sticky and roof collapses are part of the learning process, adults act as hands-on team captains! Be sure to take a quick photo of your creation in the lab before it makes the trek home!
🍬 Help Us Stock the Candy Lab!Have leftover Halloween candy or extra holiday sweets in your cupboard? Drop them off at LabSpace before the event to help fuel our young engineers’ designs! We’d love to put your stale graham crackers into the mix too! You can bring them in during any of our classes during the semester. |
