BUILDING & MAKING: 
OUTDOOR missions


Can you imagine building your own Go Kart and racing it or designing and making a proper lair for you and your friends to chill in?  What about inventing and engineering your own flying machine? The Hive's Makers Lab makes all this possible. Bringing together design, architecture, engineering and construction skills, these missions are perfect for children who just love being in the workshop, dreaming up structures, building and tinkering. 
 

These missions are designed like REAL professional projects AND ARE ideal for older children. From engineers to DESIGNERS, ARCHITECTS TO wood workers, children get the chance to work with true professionals in a CHALLENGING BUT nurturing environment.

Rabbits appear and disappear. Caterpillars turn into Cheshire cats, eating cake makes you a giant, tears turn into seas, trees have secret doors, croquet sets are made of flamingos and hedgehogs, and playing cards come in full body armour….
