Benefits of clay making for children 

Clay offers numerous benefits to the development of children. It enhances fine and gross motor skills and it provides rich sensory experiences through tactile exploration and stimulation. Cognitively, it encourages problem-solving, planning, and sequencing. Creativity and imagination are fostered as children express ideas through their creations. Emotionally, it can be calming and teaches patience and perseverance, while socially, it promotes interaction, cooperation, and communication. Language skills improve through descriptive language and storytelling.  Overall, clay making supports comprehensive physical, cognitive, emotional, and social development.

+ How does ticketing work?

All attendees need to have a ticket.  Parents can stay at the studio and watch or drop off.
