Discover a unique after school experience where children connect with beloved stories through creative expression. This program encourages young minds to explore traditional literacy skills while crafting themed artworks inspired by popular children's books. Each session promises a fun and imaginative environment where kids can express themselves freely.
Participants will use mixed materials to bring stories to life, resulting in a special piece of art to take home. This hands-on approach not only enhances reading comprehension but also nurtures creativity and confidence in young learners.
Parents can look forward to seeing their children engaged in a meaningful activity that combines learning and art, perfect for school-aged kids eager to explore new ways of storytelling.
