Creative Clay Pot Plant & Planting Fun!
Paint a clay pot, mould a custom badge, and plant a fragrant plant to take home
Paint a clay pot with a colour of choice.
Mold polymer clay into a fun and imaginative badge to individualise their pot (think rainbows, dragons, unicorns, mushrooms!)
The fun doesn’t end with the crafting! Each child will plant a scented plant in their newly made pot to take home. This hands-on activity will teach them about planting and caring for living things, while their senses are delighted by the fragrance and appearance of their new pot plant.
Perfect for young artists and nature lovers
Create your own Magical Kingdom!
Construct a magical kingdom with scented play-dough, natural elements, and a fairy or dragon
Build a Magical Kingdom with Playdough: Kids will design and craft their very own magical kingdoms using colorful, scented playdough. They can choose from a variety of scents and glitters to make their creations truly unique and magical.
Incorporate Natural Elements: To bring their kingdom to life, children will have a delightful assortment of natural dried elements like acorns, pinecones, petals, and more. These materials will help children enhance their creations with a touch of nature.
Choose a Fairy or Dragon: Each child will get to pick a charming fairy or a wise wizard to rule over their kingdom, adding a magical character that brings their creation to life.
At the end of the programme, children will proudly take home their magical kingdoms in a special kit designed to showcase their masterpiece.
