Makerspace in Preschool-It’s Not Just for Big Kids!

MAKERSPACE: a place where we gather tools and materials to create, invent, tinker, design, fabricate or otherwise enable individuals, a community or group to make something.


It is NOT defined by one certain shape, size or even having a specific tool like a 3D printer or laser cutter. This is a common misconception…no fancy power tools are needed! Essentially, it reminds me of what well studied early childhood educators have always laid out for their pre-k children in their Early Learning programs. In some classrooms or Family Child Care Homes/Centers, it may have been called the, “Tinkering Area”, the “Sewing Center ” or a “Pop-up Play Area”, filled with cardboard boxes and tape."
