About SPARKGROUNDS

Welcome to SPARKGROUNDS — a place where hands-on learning sparks creativity, exploration, and confidence in Pre-K through 12th grade students. Through our dynamic STEM and art programs, robotics workshops, and immersive take-home kits, we invite young minds to discover, build, and dream boldly.

Founded in 2020 by Carla and Richard Hay — educators, creators, and parents — SPARKGROUNDS grew from a shared belief that children learn best through real experiences and joyful curiosity. Our programs nurture problem-solving, teamwork, and self-expression, empowering students to thrive in a constantly evolving world.

Our Core Beliefs

STEM & Art are Crucial

All children must engage with science, technology, engineering, art, math, and robotics, and be given ample experience with each subject.

Working Together is Key

Problem-solving, troubleshooting, leadership, and working together are crucial skills that children must develop, practice, and exhibit.

Overcoming Failure is Learned

Children must be given the chance to succeed--and the tools to overcome failure by being empowered to solve problems to achieve goals.
