Program Educator Joss McKay said they are thrilled to be back in action.
"We've been doing an online version of Minimakers using Zoom - but it's just not the same," she said.
"It's good for the kids as well because this particular age group (newborns to five-year-olds) doesn't understand why they need to be stuck in their homes.
The kids are just so excited to be back, because we've been gone for four months- you know- that's a massive chunk of a two-year-olds life."
Ms McKay said the program allows its young participants to continue developing through socialising and getting their brains switched on.
"It's great for them to have the opportunity to socialise outside of their immediate families and being comfortable with being around groups of people and unfamiliar faces."
COVID-19 restrictions are being enforced to ensure the safety of those in attendance.
