Discover Your Potential at SHOP CLASS STX

Welcome to Kids & Machines!

At Kids & Machines, we empower young learners aged 10 to 17 with the skills and confidence to operate machinery safely and effectively. Our program is designed to inspire a passion for hands-on learning while instilling a deep respect for safety protocols.


We understand that under OSHA guidelines, minors under 18 are restricted from operating certain power-driven machinery. However, our training program focuses on providing age-appropriate instruction in a controlled and secure environment. We prioritize safety and ensure that all training aligns with OSHA standards, allowing your child to gain valuable experience without compromising their well-being.


Our experienced instructors guide students through essential safety practices and hands-on training with lawnmowers, weed eaters, and chainsaws, equipping them with practical skills that can lead to future job opportunities.
