About Sewing Kits 4 Kids, LLC

Sewing Kits 4 Kids enable children to learn simple sewing skills while discovering the enjoyment of creating items by hand. Each kit contains the pre-cut materials and step-by-step instructions that are needed to construct a uniquely crafted item. (The user supplies a few items that are readily available at home – such as needle, thread, scissors, glue, and an iron. Some projects utilize a sewing machine.)

We have noticed that fewer children are sewing these days as compared to past generations. By providing these easy-to-use kits we hope to revive an interest in sewing. Our products have received a very positive response from those who share a desire to help children learn more about sewing. Through our website we have shipped sewing kits to over 40 different states and overseas.

These sewing kits are ideal for individuals and groups. They are great activities for youth groups, scout troops, 4-H clubs, camps and parties. We have a variety of projects designed to appeal to both girls and boys ranging in ages from around 4 – 16 years old. Our First Steps Kits, created for younger learners, are lacing activities that don’t use a sharp needle. Each project yields a uniquely handcrafted item that may be used by the child or given as a gift. We have found that our sewing kits can also be used as great hands-on outreach tools for working with VBS, missions and the elderly.

Sewing Kits 4 Kids provide a hands-on learning experience that results in a fun product while acquiring useful sewing skills.

About Us

We are two sisters who are enjoying growing up in the country and learning practical life skills like sewing, gardening, cooking and caring for animals. We value our Christian family and desire to use what we have to glorify God and to bless others. We are homeschooled, which means that learning doesn’t end with the bookwork. Each chore, activity or project is preparing and training us for the life God has for us – both right now and in the future. (Our mom says the biggest lesson we are learning through our business is cooperation.) We are also actively involved in the 4-H program.

Since our business began in 2008 we have grown both personally and professionally. As young entrepreneurs we have been featured in newspapers and magazines, as well as on radio, television and the Internet.

Our original business purpose was to engage children in learning basic sewing skills through our fun and simple activity kits. The vision for the business continues to grow as we see opportunities to utilize these sewing kits as outreach tools. They have been used in camps, assisted living centers, foreign orphanages and sewing classes led by missionaries.

We would love to have the opportunity to partner with missionaries who are teaching sewing classes. In some of these places sewing is being taught as an employable life skill. We gladly set aside a portion of the proceeds from our business for ministry purposes.

In addition to education and outreach we desire to encourage youth entrepreneurs. We are working with economic development leaders within our community to increase visibility and training opportunities for young business owners.

The lessons we are learning through this real-life business experience are something that cannot be duplicated in a textbook. We are developing skills in business, marketing, stewardship and public speaking. Most of all we are gaining a deeper understanding of the value of relationships through working closely as a family, through receiving advice from other entrepreneurs, and through being mentored by caring individuals who are investing in our lives.
