Maker Studio Kids — Entrepreneurship

I enrolled my 9-year-old in the Maker Studio Kids Entrepreneurship program in San Francisco, and overall, it was a solid experience. The instructor, Sarah, was very engaged with the kids, making the sessions interactive and fun. My child particularly enjoyed creating a business plan for a lemonade stand, which involved fun brainstorming sessions and hands-on activities. I appreciated the small group size, which allowed for more individualized attention. However, the program does come with some additional costs for materials that I wasn't anticipating, which felt a bit steep on top of the base price. Some days there were also longer wait times for pickup, making it a little chaotic at times. Despite these minor annoyances, my child left each session excited about entrepreneurship and even made a couple of friends. If you have a creative kid who is interested in business concepts and can manage the costs, I’d recommend this program with a few considerations.

I enrolled my 9-year-old in the Maker Studio Kids — Entrepreneurship program in San Francisco, and overall, it’s been a solid experience. The classes are weekly and my child has been really engaged in the creative projects, especially when they worked on developing a mini-business plan for a lemonade stand. The instructor, Jamie, has a knack for making business concepts fun and relatable. I appreciated the small group size, which allowed for more personalized attention. However, I did find the program to be on the expensive side — the cost can quickly add up with the extra materials they suggest buying for projects. My child is quite creative and has started thinking like a mini entrepreneur, which I find encouraging. I would recommend this program, but just be prepared for the additional costs associated with the materials.
