Imagine having a monster as your friend—what would it look like and what powers would it have? This exciting program invites children aged 5 to 12 to bring their monster ideas to life by designing and creating their very own pocket-sized monster. It's a wonderful way to spark creativity and imagination during the school holidays.
The session is hands-on and engaging, with all materials and equipment provided. Kids will enjoy the process of drawing and crafting a monster compact enough to carry in their pocket wherever they go.
Parents can expect a lively and creative environment where children can express themselves artistically while making new friends.
