This program is sold out. To be added to the waitlist, please call 612-871-4907.  Mini Makers Camp offers children ages 6–10 an inspiring introduction to the Scandinavian tradition of slöjd, a hands-on educational philosophy rooted in Swedish pedagogy. Slöjd emphasizes learning by doing, valuing the creative process, and connecting craft to cultural heritage. In this one-day experience, campers work with traditional slöjd materials to design and complete a variety of projects. Instructors guide campers through each step while encouraging independence and creative problem-solving. Campers focus on effort and growth, building both skills and confidence in a supportive community. In just one day, Mini Makers Camp gives children the opportunity to create with their hands, connect with culture, and feel proud of what they accomplish. Campers leave with complete projects, new skills, and a sense of belonging within a creative community. Mini Makers Camp Testimonials “The classes you offer are so important to children.
