We had a lovely afternoon making slime and experimenting what we could do with it. Kelly was a fabulous host and we received a warm welcome. Would definitely recommend The Creation Station classes to others.

Slime making and more - Easter holiday

This was a great session led by Alix via Zoom. Started with silk clay making keyrings and more and then finished with slime. Excitement started with box of goodies arriving in the post before the event. Everything was provided so really easy. On the day loads of interaction with every child on the Zoom call. We will definitely do it again with Alix. Thank you so much!

My little boy absolutely loved his time

My little boy absolutely loved his time at the space themed holiday club. He was entertained from the moment he got there to the minute he left. Alexia was very sufficient with sending out all the information that we needed and made it very easy to sort out. I would defiantly recommend and will certainly be using the creation station again.

Added some sparkle to the Easter holidays…

This is the second school holidays that Alix has kept my two (7&9) throughly entertained. The dream catchers were beautiful and the slime they made and it’s hilarious sound effects continues to give them hours of entertainment! Thank you Alix! Would highly recommend!
