We will use the fundamentals of design thinking (designing through empathy), biomimicry (emulating natural strategies) and permaculture (creating positive relationships) as our framework. Every session will include a game that explores these topics and a hands-on building challenge for students to create prototype inventions using legos, arts and crafts supplies, natural objects, and other surprise materials! During later sessions, participants will have the opportunity to develop a project of their very own invention that they feel will help make a positive impact in the world.

Cost: $180
Description: Have you ever found your kiddos dancing, singing, or even acting out scenes from their favorite movie? If so, this after-school enrichment class may be right down your child’s yellow-brick road. Allow your child to channel their creative energy in a direction that leaves them feeling empowered. Not only will we learn to sing some of the songs from their favorite movies, adding dance moves along the way, we will also perform in front all of the families at the end of our 8 week session to “show off” all that we’ve learned and created. This class is similar to some of our other classes in which we will guide your child to step into their inner creative guru and come up with their own movements, allowing them to express themselves in a way that is true to them. We believe this encourages children to move freely and feel confident and comfortable being themselves. Through team bonding games and exercises we will promote positive social interactions that give your child the opportunity to find friends that have similar interests and enjoy wonderful experiences that go beyond the ending credits of the movie. Come dance, act, sing, and play this year with Kidz in Locomotion. We look forward to seeing you there!
