FOR PARENTS IN ALPHARETTA, CUMMING, MILTON & SURROUNDING AREAS (KIDS AGES 6-14):
(A Unique & Fun Saturday Workshop Experience! Think: Kid-Sized Innovation Sprints!)
Attention Tech-Savvy Parents in Alpharetta, Cumming, or Milton!
As someone in IT or software engineering, you understand the power of a great idea and the process of bringing it to life. Do you see that same innovative spark in your child? Perhaps they're always tinkering, problem-solving, or imagining new ways to do things.
If so, our Alpharetta workshop offers a unique opportunity for them to experience a mini-version of the innovation lifecycle you know so well. Our location is convenient for families in Cumming, Milton, and nearby communities.
Imagine an "Idea Lab" where children's concepts are the starting point – like a 'requirements gathering' phase. We help them take those initial thoughts and PROTOTYPE AND BUILD! They get to create, iterate, and then 'demo' their accomplishments.
Sound like a valuable experience?
This exciting opportunity for young innovators is happening now!
Every Saturday, 10:30 AM - 11:30 AM, at our Alpharetta location: 1740 Grassland Parkway, Alpharetta, GA 30004. Open to kids ages 6-14.
This is more than a class; it’s an INNOVATION ADVENTURE! Your child becomes an Inventor, a 'Product Owner' of their idea, and a 'Lead Developer' of their creation!
Think of it like a kid-friendly "Shark Tank" meets a rapid prototyping session. They'll build their 'MVP' (Minimum Viable Product - or Most Valuable Playable creation!) and then present it. All the excitement of a 'product launch,' with zero pressure and maximum fun!
Your child arrives at our **Innovation Hub at 1740 Grassland Parkway, Alpharetta**. Here’s their 'development sprint':
In just ONE HOUR, your child experiences a full cycle of innovation – from concept to 'release' – building critical thinking and communication skills along the way!
This workshop is designed to foster essential skills in a fun way:
This workshop is a launchpad for skills that transcend any single field. We're not just teaching kids to build; we're empowering them to become:
We're nurturing the skills that create not just great engineers, but great entrepreneurs, thinkers, and leaders of tomorrow.
You've likely seen kids' building activities that focus on following set instructions. While valuable, our workshop is structured more like a fun, fast-paced 'hackathon' or 'innovation challenge.'
We emphasize the entire creative development lifecycle:
It’s not just about building; it’s about conceiving, developing, and presenting – skills essential for any future engineer, designer, or entrepreneur!

Our workshop at 1740 Grassland Parkway, Alpharetta, is a focused and engaging environment. We eliminate distractions and maximize fun and learning. We provide a supportive atmosphere where children feel safe to explore, experiment, and succeed – much like a well-run agile team!
They’ll connect with other young innovators and leave feeling accomplished and inspired. It's more than just an hour; it's an investment in their creative confidence and future-ready skills.
Prepare to be impressed by your child's creativity and enthusiasm!
As someone who has seen the tech world from the inside, and as a parent, I know how vital it is to not just *have* ideas, but to be able to *communicate* them. I remember brilliant colleagues whose groundbreaking work might have been overlooked if they couldn't articulate its value. And I've seen kids with incredible imaginations hesitate to share.
Being able to clearly and confidently 'pitch' your idea, explain your 'build,' and share your vision is a superpower in any field, especially in software and engineering. It's about turning complex thoughts into understandable concepts, and inspiring others with your passion. It's the foundation for leadership, entrepreneurship, and making a real impact.
This workshop isn't just about LEGOs and circuits; it's about building that foundational confidence. It's giving your child a safe 'sandbox' to practice not just making, but also 'demoing' – to build their ideas and then proudly 'launch' them to an appreciative audience. We want to give them that early, positive experience of 'shipping' their work and feeling proud, an opportunity that can shape their future.
We love seeing kids light up with new ideas! See more inspiring stories and creations from our workshops on our Instagram @joingpskids and learn more about our programs at JoinGPS.com/sharks!
"This workshop was fantastic! My son came home so excited about the robot he designed and couldn't wait to tell us all about how he presented it. He's already asking when the next one is!"
"I was so impressed by how engaged all the kids were. The facilitators did a great job encouraging them to think outside the box and build their ideas. A wonderful experience that really sparked my daughter's interest in making things!"

We provide a variety of age-appropriate materials, including LEGOs, STEM kits, art supplies, and other tools that spark imagination and allow for creative construction.
While many activities focus on following instructions, our workshop emphasizes the full innovation cycle: from your child's original idea, through hands-on building and problem-solving (like a mini-project), to confidently presenting their creation. It's about fostering both the 'making' and the 'sharing' skills vital in tech and life.
