Nature Play with Imaginary Leaps: An Adventure into Bibra Lake

Discover the magic of Bibra Lake in this creative and engaging workshop led by the internationally acclaimed artist and educator Rachel Riggs from Imaginary Leaps!

Designed for children aged 2–5 and their parents or carers, this immersive experience invites little explorers to connect with nature through playful adventures in art, music, and movement. As families journey through the wetlands, children will investigate local environmental themes—such as native animals, plant life, and natural textures—while engaging with colour, shape, and sensory discovery. Using nature play as a foundation, Rachel’s approach nurtures creativity, curiosity, and connection, blending fun with artistry and social well-being. This workshop offers a meaningful and memorable experience that celebrates the wonder of Bibra Lake and the joy of learning through play.
