Study Pillow Sewing

This plush experience is created for kids ages 6 to 12. They'll design and create their very own travel study pillow, perfect for summer reading and studying while adventuring! Children will learn to use a sewing machine and follow technical instructions to construct their designs. They'll also get to work with a variety of materials, fabrics, and accessories, exposing them to different stitch types as they apply finishing touches to their pillow. Teacher Marsha brings the sewing machines, and all materials, to you!

What Parents Are Saying

My 4 year old LOVED his arts and crafts experience - making a love bug. He was engaged and excited all throughout the 2 hours, and was sad when the experience was over (he wanted the teacher to stay longer).

Cassie wasn’t too sure about trying sewing, but ended up having a blast! The one on one attention helped her enjoy the learning process and ask more questions, plus helped her get the finished product she loves. Marsha was very patient and great at having not just a class, but a whole experience. Cassie enjoyed chatting, learning, and trying something new in a very low stress environment!

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, Marsha, 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!
