Activity Details
The Belmonsters project began in 2016 with a collaborative community art initiative involving 14 local residents guided by author Bailey Bosch and illustrator Cameron Aitkenhead. Over 10 workshops, participants developed the characters and story that became "The Adventures of the Belmonsters".
Since then, the project has expanded to include a range of children’s resources such as a memory game, educational videos, and printable maps. These materials support literacy and creativity for school-aged children.
You can purchase books, plushies, pins, and games at The Shop in Belmont Hub during opening hours or access many free resources online to enjoy at home.
