If this is your first visit to MyRugy, start with what your family wants to discover. MyRugy Kids is a digital adventure inspired by Moroccan places, stories and crafts. It offers a subject for shared exploration, while physical products and in-person experiences serve different purposes.
A first visit works best when it is small. You are not signing up to a syllabus or committing to a purchase — you are choosing one thing to look at together and letting your child's curiosity decide how far it goes.
Give the first look a purpose
Ask whether you want a conversation about making, an introduction to a material or a way to notice patterns together. One purpose is enough.
These are three different doors into the same subject. A conversation about making suits a child who asks how things are built. An introduction to a material suits a child who likes textures and feels. Noticing patterns suits a child who spots shapes and repeats. Pick the door that matches the question already in the room.
You do not need to explore every option on the same day. A child’s first question can guide the session.
Understand the craft subjects
The Beni Ourain preview includes “Why Wool?”, “Meet the Weaver” and “Pattern Detective.” These subjects introduce material, people and design.
Read together in that order and the sequence makes sense: what a rug is made of, who makes it, and how its design is put together. Each subject is a doorway rather than a lesson to be completed.
Treat them as starting points. They are not a complete account of Moroccan craftsmanship or proof of the history of a particular rug.
That distinction matters if your child is the sort who asks follow-up questions. A digital subject can open a topic; it cannot certify the origins of an object in your home or in a shop. When the question turns to a specific rug, that is a cue for information about that rug.
Keep the experience shared
Ask your child what they notice and let them choose a detail to discuss. If the question is about a real object, look for information specific to that object.
A simple prompt works better than a quiz. “Which pattern would you keep?” or “What do you think the wool feels like?” gives a child room to answer in their own words, and the answer tells you where to go next.
Check the current game’s access and activity requirements before planning the session.
That means confirming how the adventure is reached and what it asks of a participant on the day you plan to use it, rather than assuming last month’s arrangement still holds.
Recognise the other formats
MyRugy Box is a physical Moroccan rug-weaving craft kit. MyRugy Loom is physical equipment for making. MyRugy Workshop Studio is an in-person Moroccan rug-weaving experience in Marrakech.
Three formats, three kinds of commitment: something you open at a table, something you build with over time, and something you travel to and attend. Each one asks for a different amount of space, time and preparation — a kit fits an afternoon, a loom becomes a recurring project, a studio session belongs to a trip.
Their contents, participation requirements and access arrangements should be checked separately. A first visit to the brand does not require choosing all of them.
Leave with one next step
You might save a question, draw an original pattern or investigate a physical product later. These optional responses depend on your family’s interest.
A single next step is more useful than a plan. Saving one unanswered question gives you a reason to return to the subject; drawing a pattern turns noticing into making; looking into a physical product is a decision you can make calmly, once you know what your child responded to.

What is MyRugy Kids?
MyRugy Kids is a digital adventure inspired by Moroccan places, stories and crafts. The Beni Ourain preview includes the subjects “Why Wool?”, “Meet the Weaver” and “Pattern Detective”, which introduce material, people and design. It is a starting point for shared exploration rather than a complete account of Moroccan craftsmanship.
Do I need to buy a kit or book a workshop for a first visit?
No. A first visit to the brand does not require choosing MyRugy Box, MyRugy Loom or MyRugy Workshop Studio. Those are separate formats — a physical craft kit, physical equipment for making, and an in-person experience in Marrakech — and their contents, participation requirements and access arrangements should each be checked on their own.
How much should we plan for a first session?
One purpose is enough. Decide whether you want a conversation about making, an introduction to a material or a way to notice patterns together, and let your child's first question guide the session. You do not need to explore every option on the same day, and it is worth checking the current game's access and activity requirements before you plan.
