Learning path

From Grade 1 to high school: a curriculum that grows with your child.

Six levels, 84 projects, one portfolio. Primary kids start with mugs and stickers, middle schoolers design packaging and patterns, high schoolers finish with a logo, a brand guide and a portfolio ready to take anywhere. Join at any level that fits your child's age and ability — no need to start from the beginning, and stop whenever you like. Most want to continue, because the next level's projects are even cooler.

  1. 1First Ideas · Grades 1–3Mug, T-shirt, pin, sticker, poster — the basics of layers, shapes, text and colour.

How to start

Three steps, no registration fee, no long contract.

STEP 1

Try for free first

Fill in the form and we will WhatsApp you within one working hour to set a 60-minute trial. Your child makes their first design right away.

STEP 2

Choose how to learn (custom class)

Small online groups, or private with a teacher who comes to your home. Choose the number of sessions (from 4) and the schedule: weekday afternoons or Saturdays.

STEP 3

The printed kit arrives at home

We print and deliver the designs in stages throughout the level. Every level ends with a report card, a certificate and a mini exhibition.

For parents

Why graphic design, and why now?

🖥→🎨Screens for making, not watching

Children are in front of screens every day. At Design Lab that screen time produces something they can hold.

💼Used in every profession

Doctors, entrepreneurs, teachers, content creators — everyone needs to communicate ideas visually. A core skill of this century, not a hobby.

⏱Results in the very first session

No waiting for months. One session, one finished product — your child feels capable right away.

What grows beyond design

💡Creativity

From an idea in the head to an image on screen.

🔍Attention to detail

Sizes, margins, colours — the small things that make the difference.

🎤Confidence

Presenting their work to parents at the end of every level.

💻Digital literacy

Files, formats, resolution, how printing works.

🏁Finishing

Starting, fixing and completing a project all the way.

🤝Taking feedback

Learning to hear comments and improve, without losing heart.

Transparent for parents

What you receive every session, not just at the end.

The same system we use in partner schools, now for your family.

📍Teacher checks in with location

For private classes the teacher checks in by GPS on arrival and checks out when done. You know exactly when the session started and ended.

📷Photos & videos of the session

Every session the teacher uploads photos and a short video of your child at work — you can watch even from the office.

📝A short report per session

What was learned today, what went well, what needs practice — written by the teacher, sent to your WhatsApp.

🎓Report card & certificate

At the end of the package your child receives a progress report and an official Light Education certificate, just like students in our partner schools.

🧑‍🏫Teachers with school experience

Design Lab teachers are the same teachers who teach daily in our partner international schools, with a track record we can show you.

🔁Sessions can be rescheduled

Something came up? Let us know a day ahead and the session is moved, not lost.

Child safety

The teacher who comes to your home is a school teacher, with certifications we can show you.

🎓 Teaching certification

Every Design Lab teacher holds a teaching certification and teaches daily in Light Education's partner international schools.

🛡 Child Safeguarding

Every teacher is certified in Child Safeguarding through TeachUp and bound by Light Education's written code of conduct.

⛑ First Aid & CPR

Every teacher is certified in HSI First Aid and CPR Training — ready to act should anything happen.

📍 Verified every session

GPS check-in on arrival, activity photos and a report every session. Parents may sit in at any time; all communication with children goes through Light Education channels.

Ways to learn

Custom class: you decide the format, the schedule and the number of sessions.

Special packages

For special days, holidays and different ways to learn.

🎂 Design Party — birthday package

Frequently asked questions

Before you ask on WhatsApp.

What kind of laptop is needed?

Any laptop or tablet that can open a browser. There is no software to buy.

My child has never used a computer. Can they join?

Yes. Level 1 starts from zero: opening files, using a mouse/trackpad, choosing colours. We welcome Grade 1 through high school; for kindergarten-age children, check with us on WhatsApp first.

What is the difference between online and private at home?

Online: small groups of 4–6, 60 minutes, more economical, good for children already comfortable with a computer. Private: 1 child (or siblings), 90 minutes, the teacher comes and guides in person — faster progress.

How long until the printed kit arrives?

Designs are printed once finished and delivered in stages; usually 7–14 working days after the related session. We deliver within Jakarta; other cities by courier.

Can we reschedule or stop halfway?

Sessions can be moved with one day's notice. If you stop, remaining sessions can be transferred to another child or kept for up to 3 months.

Does my child own the designs?

Yes. All design files are handed to parents in an editable format, and the printed products belong to your child.

Is the trial class really free?

Online group: free. Private at home: a small teacher transport fee, refunded if you continue with a package. No obligation after the trial.
