Little Creators Arts and Crafts embraces the belief that every child is inherently a creator and that creativity is not just a skill but a natural part of every child's development. Our thoughtfully designed Art Classes encourage imaginative thinking and self-expression. We focus on enhancing fine motor skills, sparking curiosity, and supporting artistic discovery. The activities we offer encourage cognitive growth, emotional development and social interaction all while having lots of fun and providing a fun environment to make new friends.
The program encourages kids to explore use of the following: wax crayons, pencil crayons, felt markers - water based, (no permanent markers used), watercolor paints, acrylic paints, craft foam sheets, all kinds of paper and cardboard, tissue paper, glue, playdoh, and sculpting clay - (no use of kiln), any sculptures made are left to dry out naturally, none are fired in kiln. All materials are non-toxic, safe for children and sourced from regular stores which provide standard school supplies. Classes don't include the use of glitter - (which is a micro plastic often polluted with metal), no use of scissors during classes - shapes are precut for projects prior to class.
You will be participating alongside your child as they create various arts and crafts projects. The projects are usually season-based and children will take their artwork home with them at the end of each class. All materials are provided at no extra cost.
This is a 6-week program.
