🧸🩹 The Toy Hospital is open!

Turns out you're never too young to learn that "broken" doesn't have to mean "throw it away." 💛 This past weekend we headed to @childrensmuseumatlanta for the member preview of Doc McStuffins: The Exhibit, where our volunteer Toy Doctors helped young visitors patch up their favorite stuffed friends with sewing supplies, repair skills, and lots of encouragement. 🪡✨ At Decatur Makers, we're all about learning by doing and giving things another chance. Sometimes that's a lamp, a bike, or a wobbly chair 🔧🚲💡… and sometimes it's a beloved stuffed animal who needs a little TLC. The lesson is the same: before we replace it, let's learn how it's made and see if we can fix it. 🛠️ Huge thanks to the Children's Museum of Atlanta for inviting us, and to our amazing Toy Doctors Nicole, Maureen, and Carlee! 👩‍⚕️ (Fun fact: Maureen is an actual MD, so "Toy Doctor" wasn't much of a stretch 😄)
