In the heart of the United States, nestled between the mighty Mississippi River and the shimmering Lake Michigan, lies a land of towering skyscrapers, lush cornfields, and warm-hearted people, aptly named Illinois. This magical land is inhabited not only by humans but by a jolly, charming character known as Putter Pete. With his neon green golf ball nose and putter for an arm, Putter Pete is a legend amongst the young Illinoisians. You see, Putter Pete is a whizz at mini golf, which just so happens to be the favorite pastime of the spirited kids of Illinois. These boys and girls aren't just any ordinary mini golf players, oh no! They are the champions of chutzpah, the masters of mirth, and the wizards of the windmill hole. Their enthusiasm and skill in the game have earned them a special place in Putter Pete's heart. He zips around the mini golf courses, teaching them tricks, sharing funny stories, and occasionally getting stuck in sand traps. Laughter echoes around as Pete pops up from the most unexpected places, his shiny golf ball nose glistening in the sunshine. These Illinoisians kids show the world that mini golf isn't just a game; it's an adventure. An adventure filled with astonishing holes-in-one, hilarious mishaps, and the sheer joy of spending time with friends and a funny, golf-ball-nosed friend. So, whether they are at the southernmost tip of Cairo or under the shadow of Chicago's towering giants, you'll find the kids of Illinois, putters in hand, ready for another round of fun with Putter Pete.

Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment.

We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn.
