Session 1: Build like an Engineer Saturday Program

Build Like an Engineer is a 4-week Saturday enrichment program, intentionally designed as a progression.

Children today are surrounded by technology—but access to screens does not automatically build the skills that matter most.

Problem-solving.Confidence.Communication.The ability to stick with something when it doesn’t work the first time.

Those skills are developed through doing, not tapping.

This program was created to give children regular opportunities to:

• think independently

• build with their hands

• collaborate with others

• test ideas and improve them

These experiences don’t just support academic success—they shape how children approach challenges for years to come.

Program Dates:

January 17th

January 24th

January 31st

February 7th

Who This Is For

This program is a strong fit for children who:

• enjoy building, creating, or figuring things out

• learn best by doing

• benefit from small-group environments

• need opportunities to build confidence with challenges

Age Groups

• Ages 3–6 (10:00am class)

• Ages 7–12 (1:00pm class)

  
  

Over four weeks, students practice the engineering process the way real engineers do:

Build → Test → Improve

Each Saturday builds on the one before it, allowing children to develop confidence, persistence, and independence as problem solvers.

This is a 2 hour drop-off class, however parents are welcomed to stay.

Note: This program takes place in our in-home STEM lab in Englewood, NJ.

Address will be presented after registration.
