Play with Clay: Moody Monsters!
Saturday, 12:00 pm
March 21st | Ages 4-7

in , , , ,

Class:

For this session, our young creators will learn all about emotions as they sculpt monsters! Students will come together, each choosing an emotion they want to convey, and design their very own moody monster to go with it.

What You’ll Discover:

In this class the kiddos will have time to develop their fine motor skills, socialize, and talk about what different emotions mean to them and how they imagine them through shape, color, and expression.

What You’ll Create:

Each student will be able to take home their very own moody monster at the end of their class!

(Please note: This class will use air dry clay. This is to make the learning process easier for little ones as well as allowing them to take home their work the same day. Clay will need, on average, 24 hours to fully dry. Each ticket will be for one child and one adult Parents/guardians attending will be asked to assist the child they are bringing)
