π± Does your child dream of saving the planet?

At Planet Protectors, we turn those big feelings into bold creativity β and most of allβ¦ fun!

π Build prototypes
π€ Practice storytelling
π Present their ideas on a joyful Demo Day!
Theyβll walk away with:
π± New tools for real-world problem solving
π€ Confidence in public speaking
π€ Teamwork & collaboration skills
π§ A spark of βI can do something!β empowerment
π And most importantly: joy, laughter, and new friends
