When summer rolls around, many parents start searching for camps that offer more than just entertainment—they want something enriching, skill-building, and, most importantly, fun. That’s where Mini Makers camp comes in, available at our Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Bossier City, and Houston Allbrands.com store locations. Think less screens, more seams. Less boredom, more bobbins!
Why Sewing?
Sewing is a timeless skill that sparks creativity, patience, and problem-solving—all wrapped in colorful fabrics and threads. For kids, it’s a chance to express their individuality while developing fine motor skills, spatial awareness, and even basic math. Best of all? They get to use or gift what they make!
What Happens at Mini Makers?
At sewing camp, kids dive into age-appropriate projects like:
- Designing their own bookmark
- Upcycling fabric scraps into something new
- Learning how use sewing machines safely
Who Is It For?
The Allbrands.com Mini Makers sewing camps are designed for children ages 9–14, with beginner-friendly sessions. No prior sewing experience is needed—just a willingness to learn and a bit of patience!
Sew Much More Than Summer Fun
Sewing encourages kids to slow down and focus. In a fast-paced digital world, this tactile activity helps develop mindfulness and perseverance. It’s also a fantastic way to build confidence. Completing a project gives kids a tangible sense of achievement—plus something adorable (or useful) to take home.
A sewing summer camp isn’t just about thread and fabric—it’s about threading friendships, stitching confidence, and weaving lasting memories. Whether your child dreams of becoming a fashion designer or just wants to try something new, sewing camp offers a meaningful way to spend the summer.
So this year, skip the screen time and let them stitch up something special with Allbrands.com!
Donna was on the hunt for a new creative challenge when she was asked to make a top for charity. Thanks to a background in sewing, she was prepared to take on the task. Although she was not initially drawn to the process of piecing, the creativity found in finishing quilts quickly became her primary focus. Donna completed her first quilt in January of 2014 – she never would have guessed that only a few years later, it would be “all about the quilting”.
