The Faithfully Yours Upcycle Club for Kids

Would your kids love a fun and creative way to learn upcycling, sewing, and sustainability? We’re excited to introduce the Faithfully Yours Upcycle Club — a bi-weekly gathering where kids (ages 6-10) can explore their creativity, build hands-on skills, and develop an appreciation for sustainability! Through guided projects (including both hand and machine sewing skills), imaginative upcycling, and engaging discussions about sustainability, children will discover how to turn discarded materials into functional and beautiful creations.

What to Expect:

🌿 Hands-On Upcycling Projects – Each session includes a fun, guided project using repurposed fabrics and materials. Kids will learn sewing techniques and gain confidence in creating their own designs.

📚 Sustainability Stories & Discussion – We’ll sometimes read books about sustainability and discuss how small changes can make a big difference for the planet.

🎨 Creative Play & Collaboration – Kids will have time to explore their own ideas, collaborate with friends, and have some free time to build relationships through play.
