Format: Parent on-site
Frequency: Weekly
Class size: 8-16 children
Theme: A new construction job every week

CDG Little Builders Construction Club
Get ready to build, dig, create, and have BIG fun! 🚧👷
Welcome to CDG Little Builders Construction Club—a hands-on construction adventure designed especially for curious kids ages 3–6! Each week, children become part of a real construction crew as they take on a brand-new building mission filled with imagination, teamwork, and discovery. Kids will use real Tonka trucks, dig and haul in the sand, build with giant foam bricks and wooden blocks, experiment with kid-friendly toy tools, create construction-themed crafts, and tackle fun building challenges together. Every 60-minute adventure begins with an exciting construction story and mission, followed by hands-on building, creating, and collaborative construction. Parents stay right alongside their little builders, making this a special opportunity to play, explore, and build together while encouraging creativity, problem-solving, teamwork, and confidence. With only 8–16 children per weekly class, every little builder gets plenty of opportunities to get hands-on and become part of the crew. Hard hats optional—big imaginations required!
🚜 Every Week. A New Job. A New Adventure.
Dig it. Build it. Create it. Be a Little Builder!
