About The Little Bits Workshop in River Forest, IL

We firmly believe that when kids are given the opportunity to create something with their own hands, they develop a tremendous feeling of accomplishment and joy. Our mission is to nurture the creative spirit in all children. We believe that when kids get involved in making, they gain confidence and develop a deep appreciation for the process of creation. The Little Bits Workshop team is dedicated to helping kids of all ages unlock their potential and create something new. We challenge them to think outside the box and use their imagination to create something truly unique. Our goal is to give kids the tools to not only create something but to truly understand the process and become lifelong makers.

Summer MakerCamps

Camps at The Little Bits Workshop are a collage of creativity, ingenuity, learning, upcycled projects, outdoor explorations and fun with friends. The underlying theme of each camp is to learn the necessary skills to create useful beauty and to be good stewards of the natural beauty all around us.

Hammock Camp

This is the ultimate full-day camp complete with kayaking, archery and outdoor adventures! The Little Bits workshop is partnering with Trailside Naturalists at The Pavilion in Thatcher Woods for a day of making and nature discoveries. Campers sew their own hammock and learn how to set it up to experience the joy of “hanging out” in nature with friends.
