We started "classes" (and I use the term loosely) at Leonardo's Basement this past week. LB is basically a huge workspace filled with junk. Wood, parts, old lamps, this and that, plus saws, drills and hot glue guns. Then the kids just go at it for 2 hours. You can put stuff together, you can take stuff apart. You can take your strange creations home at the end of the class.
Here is a fun video from their website, and pics of the girls having fun there this week.
