What our customers are saying
"Lots of excitement here in the McGhee household. I'm 49 and almost quit my job to apply to MIT when my son and I made the WiFi robot move! I had visions of Mars Rover 2.0 and interplanetary jetpacks! This is so needed right now!"
"Thimble classes are perfect for my kids. I more or less threw them into the first class and they went to town. The zoom bomb session with the Nintendo game designer had my kids talking about their experience for days!"
"We love taking Thimble classes in our household. I also run the Pinhead Institute, which is a Smithsonian Affiliate, and we're excited to bring hands-on learning to our students. They leave every class feeling inspired!"
