Summer has a way of making parents ask the same question over and over again: How do we keep the kids happy, busy, creative, and off the couch for a little while?

If you’ve been asking that lately, we’ve got some very sweet news for you.

This summer, Candy Town USA is bringing back one of our most fun, hands-on, smile-filled activities for kids: Kid Classes!

We’re so excited to officially announce this season’s class lineup, and honestly, we think it might be one of our cutest schedules yet. From candy necklaces and candy mosaics to candy kabobs and even a Twinkie car, these classes are designed to give kids a chance to create, play, snack, and make sweet memories all in one place.

At Candy Town USA, we believe candy should be more than something you unwrap and eat. It can also be something you build, decorate, invent, laugh over, and proudly show off before taking that very first bite. 

Let’s talk kid classes.

Why We Love Kid Classes at Candy Town USA

There are a lot of ways for kids to spend a summer day. They can go to camp, hang at home, visit the park, splash in the sprinkler, head out on family errands, or bounce between scheduled activities. And while all of those things have their place, there’s something special about giving kids an experience that feels a little magical and a little unexpected.

That’s why we love our kid classes so much.

These aren’t just “sit and listen” classes. They’re hands-on, interactive, creative experiences where kids get to make something fun out of treats they already love. It’s part craft, part candy adventure, part summer memory.

And from a parent’s perspective, that makes them such a great option.

Kid classes are wonderful because they:

• Give kids something fun to look forward to
• Encourage creativity and imagination
• Let children work with their hands
• Feel special without being overly complicated
• Create built-in memory-making moments
• Offer a sweet activity that’s different from the usual summer routine

We also love that these classes feel welcoming and lighthearted. They don’t require kids to be experts at anything. They don’t need prior experience. They just need curiosity, excitement, and maybe a little sweet tooth.

That’s part of the charm.

A candy necklace doesn’t have to be perfect to be adorable. A candy mosaic doesn’t have to look like museum art to be something a child feels proud of. A candy kabob doesn’t have to be symmetrical to be delicious.

These classes are about joy first.

And in the summer, that matters.

What Makes Candy Town USA Kid Classes Different

One of the things we love most about our classes is that they feel perfectly suited to who we are as a shop.

Candy Town USA has always been about more than just candy on shelves. We’re about experiences. We’re about fun. We’re about nostalgia, family memories, and those little “you had to be there” moments that stick with people.

Kid classes fit right into that spirit.

They turn the shop into more than a place to stop and browse. They turn it into a place where kids can:

• Learn by doing
• Create something with their own hands
• Enjoy the fun of edible crafting
• Experience Candy Town USA in a whole new way

That’s what makes these classes special.

A lot of summer activities come and go. But there’s something memorable about a child proudly holding up their candy necklace, showing off their mosaic, or rolling out a Twinkie car they made themselves. Those are the kinds of moments that end up in the family photo gallery—and in family stories later on.

That’s the kind of sweetness we love.

Pricing for Kid Classes

We know parents want summer activities that feel worthwhile and manageable, so we’ve kept pricing simple and family-friendly.

Kid Class Pricing

• $20 per child
• Sibling discount: $15 each

That sibling discount is especially helpful for families signing up multiple kids, and it makes it a little easier to turn these classes into a family summer outing.

We know that summer expenses can add up quickly, and we love being able to offer something that feels special and memorable while still being accessible for families.

When you think about what these classes include—hands-on fun, creativity, sweet projects, and the experience of making something unique—they really are a great little value for a summer activity.

How to Register

Signing up is easy.

To register for a Candy Town USA Kid Class:

Head to our website and click on Events.

There, you can register for the classes you want, save spots, and make sure your kiddos don’t miss out on the projects that sound the most exciting.

We definitely recommend registering sooner rather than later, especially for the classes that sound especially popular for your child’s age and interests.

Because these are special event-style classes, spots can fill up- and once a date is full, it’s full.

So if you already know your child would be thrilled about Candy Necklaces, Candy Mosaic, Candy Kabobs, Popin Cookin Kit, or Twinkie Car, the best move is to hop on the website and claim a spot early.

Why These Classes Make Great Summer Memories

One of the best things about kid classes is that they don’t just fill time- they create memories.

At Candy Town USA, we see that all the time. A class becomes more than just an item on the calendar. It becomes:

• “Remember when we made candy necklaces?”
• “You loved your mosaic so much.”
• “That Twinkie car was the funniest thing ever.”
• “We have pictures from that class!”

These are the kinds of small, sweet moments that families treasure.

That’s especially true during summer, when everyone is trying to soak up as much fun as possible before schedules shift again in the fall.

Kid classes give children something to anticipate, something to make, and something to remember.

And in a world where so much entertainment is screen-based, there’s something extra nice about giving kids an experience that’s tactile, creative, and shared in person.

They get to use their hands.
They get to make choices.
They get to build something.
They get to laugh.
They get to enjoy the process.

That’s a pretty wonderful way to spend part of a summer day.

Great for Parents, Grandparents, and Caregivers Too

Another reason we love these classes? They’re not just fun for kids—they’re also great for the adults who love them.

Parents love having a summer activity they can put on the calendar and feel good about.

Grandparents love having a fun outing to do with the grandkids.

Caregivers love having something cheerful, easy, and engaging to bring kids to.

And because these projects are so cute and memorable, they naturally become something adults enjoy being part of too—even if they’re mostly watching from the sidelines.

The best children’s activities often do that. They create joy for the kids, but they also give the grown-ups a reason to smile.

These classes definitely fall into that category.

Which Class Should You Pick?

If you’re looking at the full schedule and wondering where to start, here’s a simple way to think about it.

Pick Candy Necklaces if your child:

• Loves classic candy
• Enjoys wearable creations
• Wants something easy and instantly fun

Pick Candy Mosaic if your child:

• Likes art and visual projects
• Enjoys patterns and arranging colors
• Loves making something pretty and creative

Pick Popin Cookin Kit if your child:

• Wants a treat that feels big, fun, and snackable

Pick Twinkie Car if your child:

• Thinks edible vehicles are the greatest idea ever

And of course, if your child would love all of them… that’s a perfectly valid answer too.
