Reka Family Day
Woodworking workshop for parents and kids, ages 4–18
Woodworking workshop for parents and kids, ages 4–18
Reka Family Day is a simple and meaningful time for parents and children to slow down and create something together. In this session, families will build a wooden toy car from scratch. There’s no fixed design, parents and kids decide the shape together, trim the wood, drill, sand, and bring their ideas to life.
It’s not about perfection, but about spending quality time, learning new skills, and enjoying the process side by side. Through woodworking, families connect, communicate, create shared memories and building characters.
Why Design & Fabrication are Important?
We believe children are naturally good at imagining what they want in life. They dream freely and see possibilities everywhere. But along the way, they also need to learn that turning those ideas into reality takes effort, patience, and practice. This is where parents play an important role, working together with their children, guiding them, and learning side by side toward the same goal.
The final result may not be perfect or beautifully made, and that’s completely OK. To a child, what matters most is the feeling of “I did this” or “We did this together.” Through these small experiences, children learn not to be afraid of trying, to dream big, and to take small steps to move forward. These moments slowly build confidence and character as that kind of growth takes time.
