If you are involved with children and want to deliver unique, fun and beneficial experiences to the individuals you work (without spending endless hours preparing activities yourself), then this could be one of the most exciting pages you’ll ever read…

Here’s why:

There is finally an easy way to provide stunningly effective ‘hands on’ learning and fun experiences through art and craft sessions, with no mess or stress for you.

And if you want to promote your services with an original and exciting event to be enjoyed by a variety of ages and people, then this is for you as well.

Every single step from planning the activities …to resources… to setting up and clearing away is all provided for you through our

“Award winning Creation Station sessions”

You will be amazed at how much fun everyone involved has.

And the best part?

All you have to do is take a few minutes to let us know what you would like to achieve from the session and we will design the sessions or event to help you achieve your goals and ensure everyone involved enjoys a fun, creative and memorable experience.

Here are a few examples of how we have worked in partnership with others to support the great work that they are doing:

Developing parenting and play skills

• P.E.E.P’s (Parent Early Education programme) wanted an activity to help Mums engage with their babies. Our programme works within the new Early Years Foundation Stage framework that will statutory in nurseries from this September. However we involve the parent / carer so they can easily access practical parenting and play skills. The ‘Squishy Squashy’ session for 22 babies and ladies was a huge success.

• The national charity Young Mums to Be (YMTB) were looking for ideas to help Mums play with their babies. We created a number of booklets to support and encourage creative play with babies and with under five year olds.

Supporting families

• Memphys, out reach organisation for families with a disabled child, were looking for an interactive activity that the whole family could get involved in. We provided a range of activities that all abilities were able to enjoy, and they produced stunning artwork.

• Charnwood Museum contacted us to provide art and craft sessions for families with under five year olds.

Offering additional services to customers

• Bumpis soft play area wanted to give their customers extra activities and recognised the benefit of using a specialist art and craft activity to provider to increase the customer numbers.

Increasing customer numbers and developing new customers

• Snibston Discovery Park were working to achieve the Key Performance Indicator for their under five year olds using the centre. Our service has helped to increase the numbers of under five year olds and generated new users to their service.

Training

• Charnwood Local council wanted to provide creativity training to the childminders. We provided a session with some new creative ideas and activities for child minders to do at home.

• Rawlins Community college wanted to increase their IT skills in their on site nursery. We helped to develop a range of activities that uses the computer as a creative tool alongside the EYFS framework

Events and Fun!

• A local Quorn organisation wanted an interactive and engaging activity at their fundraising fete – we provide a range of art and craft activities for all the different aged children to enjoy.

We would love to support you in the work that you do supporting families in the community..
