Thank you for your interest in Tinkergarten by ThinkPlaySpeak. At this time, no future seasons are planned.

Previous Tinkergarten experiences

Each season, we help children to develop one of our 8 core skills kids need to become curious, capable learners who can contribute to their world. This Summer, we focus on COMMUNICATION—the symphony of skills kids activate in order to receive communication from others, process that communication, and express their ideas back. To make it extra joyful, we frame all of our lessons around a fun Camp Tinkergarten.

Our Camp series will meet Monday –Friday and run for 1 week from July14- July 18. Each lesson will gently highlight a different aspect of communication. Throughout the series, we’ll also attune explorers and grown-ups to how important Tinkergarten class rituals help kids strengthen their communication skills. We’ll also teach our special summer “Camping With Our Friends” song to support kids with active listening and non-verbal communication.

Tinkergarten classes are offered at different locations in Spokane and focus on helping you and your family access and enjoy our beautiful home year-round, regardless of the weather. In the Pacific Northwest, we embrace the philosophy that there is no such thing as bad weather! Classes facilitate open-ended, exploratory, nature PLAY. Children build their behavioral schema play through hands-on, experiential learning in mixed-age classes.
