Dive into a creative and screen-free workshop where children aged 9 to 15 will learn how to design their own custom board game. This fun and educational session encourages kids to think critically about games that can make a positive impact on the world.
Guided by experienced local game developers Jake and Ahmad from EduGaming Collective, participants will engage in hands-on activities that blend crafting with game design. Whether your child comes with an idea or none at all, they will leave with a unique game prototype to take home.
This workshop is perfect for parents looking for an enriching school holiday activity that combines creativity, learning, and play.
The workshop runs for two hours from 15:00 to 17:00 on Wednesday, 8 July 2026. It is designed specifically for children aged 9 to 15 years.
All materials and guidance are provided by EduGaming Collective, known for their approachable teaching methods and focus on games that educate and inspire.

Children must meet the age requirements of 9 to 15 years, and those 12 and under require adult supervision.
