What is the Minecraft Club?

A small-group, instructor-led Minecraft Education Edition program for kids ages 6–12 — and a totally new spin on what a kids' club can be. Most local clubs are kids-only: you drop off and sit on the couch. Ours is the opposite. You're IN the world with your kid.

Every Session: The 4-Beat Arc

1 · Parent Warm-Up

A 5-minute walkthrough of movement and basic mechanics — no Minecraft experience needed.

2 · Kid Showcase

Your kid shows off what they built. (Prepare to be impressed.)

3 · Co-Build in Creative

You build something together — the heart of the club.

4 · Survival Free Build

Close with relaxed open play in a safe, supervised world.

Saturday mornings, twice a month — ~90 minutes per session, on weekends announced monthly so your family can plan around them. First cohort starts fall 2026 (5–10 families).

Pricing — Three Tiers

Student Solo

$25/month

  • Your kid attends; you spectate from the kitchen
  • Good fit: kid wants Minecraft time, parents want a 90-minute break

★ Parent + Kid Duo

$40/month

  • You and your kid build together — the format the whole club is built around
  • Good fit: parent wants Minecraft fluency without learning it solo

Our flagship tier

Family Pass

$60/month

  • Up to 5 accounts — kids, parent-kid pairs, or cousins in the same family
  • Same co-play format, multiple Minecraft worlds
  • Good fit: multiple kids at home, or bring a cousin along

Every tier includes one $50 family onboarding — a kickoff social where we install Minecraft Education, practice the login flow, join a test world together, and meet the other families. Bring everyone you can fit in the kitchen. Enrollment is month-to-month — no long-term commitment.

What's Included

  • Minecraft Education Edition license — we buy, you use, we manage
  • World setup + curriculum (movement warmup → cooperative village → megacity)
  • Live instruction, in the world with you
  • Parental controls + digital citizenship module
  • A safe, supervised environment
  • The 4-beat parent+kid arc every session

Who's Teaching It?

Gabe Montelaro — founder of Neighborhood Nerd Services, dad of two experienced Minecrafters, and a technology education teacher. Gabe holds current PA Act 153 clearances (PA State Police, PA Child Abuse History, FBI fingerprint). And he's IN every session — not behind a screen, in the world with you and your kid.
