HOFTC: Choose Your Own Adventure
(K-5TH Grade, Max 8)
Would your child like to join friends for an organized active game led by one of our experienced counselors? Would they prefer to play an indoor board game or card game? How about solo time to color or work on homework? Maybe they just need some less-structured freetime on the playground or field (rain or shine!) after school to burn off excess energy and engage in free play. We offer all of those options! Choose Your Own Adventure allows each child to recharge after school in their own way, without screens and with proper supervision.

Little Hands: Hand Sewing
(K-5TH Grade, Min 3/Max 9)
From simple mending all the way to intricate embroidery, hand sewing is a wonderful way to add detail or do finishing work that a machine can’t always do! We will be learning multiple types of hand sewing techniques, from the basic whip stitch to buttons, to embroidery. This class will build fine motor skills, finger dexterity, and most important, it will give their creative muscles a workout! Students will start with a simple prerequisite project and then move at their own pace to more exciting and challenging options! Project options, which rotate each session, include puppets, monster keychains, fruit brooches, stuffies, wallets, and more!

Kids' Carpentry is a hands-on toy building experience designed to teach kids practical woodworking skills with an emphasis on the safe use of hand tools. While kids construct fun and exciting projects, they are also empowered to become independent thinkers--building confidence, selfesteem, and a repertoire of practical skills that will last them a lifetime. At the end of the session kids will bring home one or more wooden games or toys that they have built by hand from scratch.
