Lovely experience

Was a lovely afternoon. Nice and relaxing and amazing value for what we had (hot drink and cake included). Kelly was super friendly as well. Only thing I would say was that the venue was on the chilly side. When I was getting my little ones toes out for the footprints I found that he got cold quickly, ending up with a lot if snot appearing.

I would highly recommend this class

I would highly recommend this class. Gurjot is such a great teacher and made an immediate connection with my 1.5 year old daughter in the first class. My daughter didn’t like to get her hands and feet in the paint to start with, but by the third class, was enjoying it. The craft ideas are wonderful and the teaching was supportive and gentle. It’s also great to know that the materials are safe for kids. We really love the way Gurjot teaches and the effort she puts into making the classes and special craft making sessions a great fun learning experience for all. Thank you.

My little one had the best party - thank you!

My little one had the best party! Nakita was truly amazing. She kept the children engaged throughout, making it fun and inclusive for everyone and they all got to take home their lovely artwork. So many parents commented on what a fabulous party it was and how much they enjoyed it as well as the children. Would definitely recommend to anyone!
