Class Overview
Made With You in Mind
Middle-Earth. Narnia. Wakanda. These places are alive to those who love those stories.
Not by chance! A master worldbuilder strategizes, plans, and maps out their fictional world. It’s the creative prep work that gives the story a chance to grow inside of it.
Worldbuilding gives your child (ages 9-14) the chance to unleash their imagination and create a living, breathing world of their own—from scratch!
We’ll begin by investigating favorite worlds to uncover how worldbuilders hook our interest and transport us to parts unknown. Each week, your kids will explore a new facet of worldbuilding and then practice applying this knowledge to their own world.
When class is done, your child will have a portfolio-worthy collection of material —freewrites, lists, timelines, and drawings—to use to write a story, develop a role-playing campaign, or create a board game.
Worldbuilding will appeal to artists, writers (reluctant and prolific), and list-makers who love to organize information. All will find something appealing in this process.
We hope your child will join us on this worldbuilding adventure!
