For Families
Screen-free programs that help kids and teens discover their creative voice — through live facilitated events, personalized story letters, and guided tabletop adventures.
Mastermind Adventures creates immersive educational experiences where young people build confidence, develop creative thinking skills, and discover what they're capable of — all in a screen-free, supportive environment.
Our programs use collaborative storytelling, guided role-play, and hands-on creative challenges to help kids and teens develop the skills they need to thrive: communication, problem-solving, creative thinking, and resilience.
Every program is designed to build real skills while keeping young people engaged. Whether they're navigating a story world, building characters at a tabletop, or receiving personalized letters, they're learning to collaborate, think creatively, and take on challenges with confidence.
Not another pizza party. A real adventure.
We bring the program to your venue (or run it virtually). Your child and their friends become heroes in a guided story adventure — solving mysteries, making decisions, and working as a team. Available in-person or virtual.
