Kids Create Saturday: Magical Masterpieces

  • Museum of Design Atlanta (MODA) 1315 Peachtree Street Northeast Atlanta, GA, 30309 United States (map)

Ages 5+ with caregiver supervision

In-person at MODA


MODA invites families on a fantastical journey to design mythical castles, creatures, and worlds straight out of their imaginations!

Using LEGO® bricks, families can bring their own unique fantasy visions to life. This activity is the perfect opportunity for kids to explore creativity, storytelling, and the principles of design while having fun.


During this Kids Create Saturdays, we’ll:

  • Design fantastical castles, mythical creatures, and imaginative worlds using LEGO® bricks.

  • Encourage creative problem-solving through hands-on experimentation.

  • Inspire young designers to think critically about shapes, patterns, and details.

  • Provide a space where families can connect through play and design.

  • Practice collaboration, inclusivity, creative courage, imaginative problem-solving, and critical thinking

Whether staying for a few minutes or the full session, kids will leave with new ideas, new skills, and a spark of creative confidence. Join us this month for an afternoon of exploration and frosty fun at MODA’s Kids Create Saturdays!
