Sewing & Crafting Camp

Projects may include:
Pyjama shorts, stuffed animals, bags, hair accessories, keychains, and more.

Each day includes a mix of machine sewing, hand sewing, crafts, movement breaks, and outdoor play to support focus and creativity.

Who it’s for:
Kids who enjoy making things, can focus for 60–90 minutes at a time, and are willing to work through the normal challenges of learning a new skill.

*Children must be going into at least Grade 3 in September

Pricing:

  • $450 per child

  • $850 for two children (Friends Bundle)

All materials and sewing machines included

Optional: Bring your child’s home sewing machine so they can learn on the one they’ll continue to use. Secure storage provided.
