Tinkering School



About This Spot
A hands-on maker camp in the Presidio where kids build real things with real tools — saws, drills, hammers. They design and construct large-scale projects from wood and recycled materials. Ages 6-16. If your kid loves building, taking things apart, or making a mess, this is their camp.
What to Expect
Parent Tips
$675 for the session. Ages 6-16. Real tools, real building — not toy hammers. Kids build large-scale projects they're genuinely proud of. Presidio setting is beautiful. Safety-focused but trusts kids with real responsibility.
