Half Pint Co. is a labor of love put on by Shelby Voeltz and Michelle Halverson, two Minneapolis moms looking to use their skills and interests in a way that benefits the community. Our goal is to provide fun, non-cheesy activities for kids and their families. The overall vibe is summer camp arts & crafts meets scout outings meets a beloved, old book.
At Half Pint Co., our mission is to create community-building experiences that celebrate the uniqueness of every child. We are committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in all of our events, ensuring every child feels valued, respected, and welcomed. Through our innovative and engaging activities, we strive to inspire creativity, foster friendship, and build confidence in children of all backgrounds. We believe every child deserves to feel like they belong and have a voice, and we are dedicated to creating events that reflect this belief. Our goal is to create a safe, inclusive environment where all children can learn, play, and grow together.
We typically provide 2 to 3 hands-on activities and an experiment during our events. We’ll provide the supplies and the instructions, you engage with your child to create something special in a self-directed setting. You might get messy, and you’ll for sure have fun! The events we host have a different theme each time, whether celebrating a local children’s book author, an upcoming holiday, or something totally unrelated. Regardless of the theme, the underlying goal is to provide a fun, creative, family-friendly experience for everyone. Grab a beer or a seltzer, and spend some quality time with your kiddo!
