🌿 Dr Whistlestop’s Wizarding Workshop

A gentle wizarding adventure where children learn about magical creatures, practice potion-making, and connect with nature’s hidden magic.

Blurb:
Step into the soft, enchanted world of the Creature Keepers, where young apprentices are invited to slow down, listen deeply, and learn the ancient ways of quiet magic. Guided by a kind and curious Witch, Dr Whistlestop, children explore telltale signs of mythical forest creatures, craft their own magic wands, and brew take-home potions inspired by the natural world. This calming, nature-connected experience is perfect for thoughtful adventurers and children who prefer their magic with a touch of wonder and stillness.
