The Busy Bee Co.: Cooking, Art & Sewing Classes for Kids (Ages 3+)

The Busy Bee Co., located in Layton, Utah, is a dynamic learning center founded in 2019 by moms April Stettler and Margie Peterson. Dedicated to nurturing creativity and life skills in children ages 3 and up, the company offers a rich variety of hands-on programs including cooking, art, and sewing classes. Children gather to explore real‑ingredient cooking, experiment with artistic mediums, and build patience and precision through sewing—all in an encouraging, playful environment.

Every season brings fresh opportunities: popular summer camps fill quickly, fall and spring classes like cooking, art, and sewing open for registration annually, and seasonal pop-up events add new creative twists—think gingerbread house baking, tie-dye t-shirt decorating, or pancake art. Families also appreciate flexible offerings like preschool programs, birthday party packages, and adult classes in watercolor and sewing, designed to build confidence across all ages.

At the heart of The Busy Bee Co. is a clear philosophy: learning and fun go hand in hand. With a foundation in real-life skills and creativity, the instructors aim to cultivate self-assured, imaginative learners. The environment is intentionally positive, aiming to teach cooking, art, and sewing not just as crafts or hobbies, but as vehicles through which children can discover strengths, express themselves, and gain practical skills that will serve them in life.
