It's a fun, creative, and educational activity for your child this summer. Over three engaging sessions (2 hours per day), children will learn basic machine and hand-sewing skills while developing confidence, creativity, and problem-solving abilities.
Why Sewing for Children?
Sewing is not just a practical life skill—it’s an adventure in creativity and self-expression! At our Kids' Summer Sewing Camps, children will:
Build Essential Skills – Learn how to safely use a sewing machine, sew straight lines and curves, and understand basic construction techniques.
Boost Creativity – Experiment with fabric, colours, and textures to make fun projects they’ll be proud to show off.
Develop Focus & Patience – Following step-by-step instructions helps strengthen concentration and perseverance.
Improve Coordination & Motor Skills – Using a sewing machine and handling fabric enhances hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills.
Learn Eco-Awareness – By making their own items, children gain an appreciation for sustainable fashion, reducing waste, and valuing handmade over mass-produced goods.
Enjoy Social Interaction – Working alongside peers in a fun, relaxed setting helps build friendships and teamwork skills.
