Mini Makers: Arts & Crafts Club

A creative, hands-on class for children and their grown-ups to make, create, and explore together

There’s something special about slowing down and making something with your hands.

 

The paint-covered fingers.
The proud smiles.
The imagination that appears when children are given the freedom to create without rules or expectations.

 

Mini Makers is a playful arts and crafts club designed for children and their grown-ups to enjoy quality creative time together.

 

Each week explores a different theme using a variety of materials, textures, colours, and techniques. From painting and collaging to seasonal crafts, sensory creations, and imaginative projects, every session is designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and connection.

 

This class isn't about creating perfect artwork.

It's about exploring, experimenting, and enjoying the process together.

What you’ll experience

Weekly themed creative projects
Each session introduces a new craft activity designed to inspire imagination and hands-on learning.

Open-ended exploration
Children are encouraged to create freely, make choices, and express themselves in their own unique way.

A variety of materials and techniques
Painting, sticking, cutting, building, sensory play, seasonal crafts, and mixed-media creations.

Quality time together
An opportunity for children and their grown-ups to connect through shared creativity and play.

Process over perfection
We celebrate imagination, effort, and exploration rather than focusing on a finished product

Who these classes are for

Perfect for creative children who love to paint, stick, build, create, and get a little messy along the way.
