Zen Maker Lab (Shipyards) — Science

My daughter attended the Zen Maker Lab's science program in Vancouver for a few weeks, and overall, it was a solid experience. The staff, particularly a friendly instructor named Lisa, were very engaged and attentive to the kids. They worked on hands-on projects related to simple machines, and my daughter particularly loved building a small catapult. The small group size meant she received plenty of individual attention. However, I did find the pickup process a bit chaotic, with long lines that made it a challenge to leave on time. Despite that, she came home excited each week, and I could see her confidence growing in her ability to tackle science concepts. I’d recommend this program to other parents, especially those with creative and active kids looking to explore science in a fun way.

My son attended the Zen Maker Lab's science program in Vancouver last month, and overall, we had a solid experience. He particularly enjoyed building a simple circuit with his group, which sparked his curiosity about electricity. The instructor, Sarah, was very engaging and encouraged all the kids to share their thoughts, fostering a creative environment. One minor annoyance was the long lines during drop-off, which made mornings a bit chaotic. However, once in the class, the small group size allowed for personal attention, and my son made a new friend. I would recommend this program to other parents, especially if your child is creative and enjoys hands-on projects. We're looking forward to the next session!
