My six year old is insistent that we build a fully functioning Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, as seen in the cartoon on Playhouse Disney, complete with flying Toodles, in our back yard. He cried when I told him he’d have to wait til after college. He claims he’ll grow up to build robots and machines anyway. If his goal were to be hired by Disney World to build the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, what sort of education would he need?
OMG, he’s already got every kind of building toy you can imagine. Erector sets, legos, magnetix, wooden erector sets, gears, k’nex. I got him a mousetrap game last week. He played it once then used the parts to build something else! I don’t think there’s any question as to what he wants to do!

I’m not exactly sure, but I would suggest architecture, computers, and engineering. In addition, I’m sure there will be new technology that will come out by the time your son is ready to go to school.
Good luck with that to him and you… awesome dream job!

that is great… but why not start small? he is only six. so why not get him Lego’s or other building toys and have him start building stuff in miniature? see if that is what he really wants to do and also let his imagination grow. then when he is older you can see about the education.

He’d need a degree in engineering.
