Chessington World of Adventures Resort wanted African themed craft activities as part of their ‘African Adventure’ week from 19th – 27th February. 

We worked together to develop a range of hand-on activities that children aged from 3 years to 11 years could enjoy. 

Amongst the wilds of Chessington’s Zoo, SEA LIFE centre and safari hotel, adventurers immersed themselves into African culture with face mask painting, amazing African animals, clay bead jewellery making and African collage design.

Between 10am – 3pm every day, families enjoyed an exciting journey of exploration discovery and adventure using arts and crafts to explore African culture. 

Children engaged at their own pace and developmental stage to create their own amazing artwork.

Activities included making recycled beads based on those made by the Buutiti women beaders of Kampala in Uganda. Children also worked with clay to create clay beads to create body jewellery and painted African masks according to traditional style.

In conjunction with Chessington World of Adventures Resort, The Creation Station ran a national competition and promoted the activities to attract families to join in the adventures.  

Chief Explorer at Chessington David Smith said: “We were thrilled to hold our African Adventures week for the first time and with our Wanyama Village & Reserve full of African animals and a safari hotel. It was wonderful to have The Creation Station on-hand to deliver their inspirational activities. It was an action packed week for all the family.”
