Ride. Build. Explore!Pedal Kids USA and the Scott Family Amazeum have teamed up for a one-of-a-kind adventure that combines STEAM learning and outdoor exploration in an exciting way—through biking and tinkering!
In Tinkering on the Trails, young makers will build their confidence using tools and on two wheels, connecting the thrill of motion with the creativity of making. Each session combines time on bikes with immersive hands-on tinkering experiences designed by Amazeum educators and Pedal Kids coaches. From learning how gears work to crafting trail-ready creations, kids will discover the science behind how things move, balance, and build—then test it all out on the trails!
This is not your average bike class or museum workshop—it’s a fusion of movement, making, and imagination, created to help kids see the world through curiosity, creativity, and confidence.
