Treehouse Kid and Craft

This whimsical toy store (with locations in Atlanta and Athens) offers drop-in art classes. They have a session for 2-4 year olds and then one for 5-10 year olds. While they are “drop-in,” it is best to reserve your spot online, just to make sure you get a spot. In the classes they craft, paint draw and sometimes sculpt. It’s different every week.
