Little Crafters Nature Club | Clay Lights | Ages 2-6 |

Term 4 - Week 2 (19 & 22 OCT)

Each week, children will work with natural, recycled and tactile materials to create nature-inspired projects. From clay and leaves to sticks, shells, flowers and other natural treasures, we’ll explore different ways to transform materials from the world around us into beautiful and imaginative creations.

The focus is on creativity, experimentation and connecting with nature while developing fine motor skills, confidence and an appreciation for the materials around us.
