Messy Play for 0-3

Duration: 1h
Dates: Fri 28 Mar 2025 10:00 - 11:00
Location: Create Space

Join us for a messy, sensory and creative session for little ones as part of Spring Holiday Pop-up.

In this special Messy Play session for ages 0 to 3, we’ll be trying simple printmaking techniques. Little ones will enjoy doing these together with their carers, giving them a chance to explore different art materials and make their mark. 

Each session will be led by an art therapist and an artist tutor, with a focus on simple printing and art making. As the name suggests, these sessions can get messy and we recommend dressing with this in mind. At the end of each session we provide a warm water bath and towels for clean up. 

Enjoyed the variety of art materials. The sessions being baby led, encouraging choice and exploration, was fantastic. Have taken away ideas for home play. Loved it
