Through your child’s eyes
“How do I build a rear light that switches itself on?”
What your child does here: Tighten bolts, fix the chain, patch a tyre, get the light working again.
The real thing at the end:
A wheel that rolls again.

Through your eyes
What’s behind it
Not a talk about bikes but a real bike – with real tools, chosen for kids and with someone to show them how.
Along the way, your child practises:
- Skilful hands
- Sticking with it
- Understanding tech
Instead of just listening: Whether the chain holds shows straight away. If it doesn’t, your child has another go.
- Planned
- Membership: not yet decided
- Ages: to be decided
How it might look at different ages
Examples for orientation – not age limits. Who for? Age limits are still to be decided.
Ages 3–5
Hammers, screws and glues together a wooden car of their own with kids’ tools.
Along the way, your child practises: Skilful hands, patience, seeing something through
Ages 6–8
Builds a birdhouse from real wood – measuring, sawing and driving in screws.
Along the way, your child practises: Measuring, planning, handling tools
Ages 9–12
Fixes a bike: chain, brakes, light – until it rides again.
Along the way, your child practises: Finding faults, seeing how parts connect, sticking with it

This is what the experiment looks like. You can try it with JavaScript – and later on, for real, with us.
Drawing: a kids’ bike – you can clearly see the tyre, the chain and the light.

Questions and answers
How safe are real tools?
Real tools need clear rules. Our safety concept is in progress: which tools from what age, who leads, what protective gear. We’ll publish it before anyone picks up a screwdriver for the first time.
Who leads the classes?
We’re settling that right now. We’ll introduce course leaders and their qualifications once they’re confirmed – no names before that.
What ages is TRALLAFITTY for?
Age limits for the individual activities are still being decided. The optional age band on the waiting list helps us plan – it isn’t an admission promise.
For all the “look at this!” moments still to come.
Join for free, no strings attached. We’ll be in touch once there’s reliable news.
