Crochet the Day Away!

SF, Marin
Weekdays, Afterschool, Weekends

Our "Crochet the Day Away!" experience is an introductory lesson in the basic skills of crochet, history of the art form, and an overview of different uses for crocheted materials. Children will be able to choose what project they are interested in, and have support in completing their design.

Beginning with “granny squares,” which are a fundamental building block for many crochet projects, kids can incorporate as many colors and patterns as they would like. They'll examine some completed crocheted projects to gain insight and inspiration, and learn in detail about hooks and yarn. Kids will learn several different stitches used in crochet: single crochet, double crochet, and chain link, for example, and have time to practice them. Finally, they'll get some uninterrupted "make" time, during which they'll get to enjoy crocheting (with help from Teacher Danielle!), and hopefully find themselves in a little bit of crochet "flow." 🧶

What Parents Are Saying

We LOVED everything about Grasshopper! The customer service experience was exceptional! I felt like so much intentionality was taken to ensure that the activity would be both age appropriate and fun for my kids. Our experience leader was so easy going and chatted with the kids during the experience, and really took the time to engage and get to know them. We are definitely going to be using Grasshopper again! Thank you!

Grasshopper offered my daughter an opportunity to learn in a vibrant, fun setting that was continuously customized for her attention span and interests. Her Grasshopper teacher was fun, engaging and supremely personable. She took the time to get to know my daughter before diving into anything. I felt more than comfortable leaving my daughter in such capable hands…and love that she truly learned some new things from the experience. We will be using Grasshopper regularly to broaden her horizons and expose her to new concepts in a safe and compelling way. The icing on the cake is that the experience took place in our home, at a time that was convenient for us!

Our Grasshopper experience was amazing! I have four very curious kids at different ages with different interests, and the experience had all four of them engaged the whole time. Also, as an educator, I was very impressed with how the teacher led the program. She obviously knew what she was doing, and the minute she left, my kids were asking for another experience.
