Magical Mermaid Hair
Event description
We will experiment and play with yarn, fibre, NZ made and recycled materials, learning how to mindfully craft while making magical mermaid hair pieces!
In this class your child will be guided by Textile Designer and sustainability advocate, Sophie, to learn how to plait and assemble an array of materials for their personalised adornment.
Imaginative and mindful creativity is a great way for children (and adults!) to bring balance to the nervous system and to digest thoughts and ideas away from the input of screens.
Your young ones will go on a magical journey, choosing colours and creating their unique unicorn, mermaid, faerie hair piece!
Additional resource packs with a mix of materials will be available for purchase to continue with at home!
Materials & hot choccie will be provided.
Please arrive by 11:25 to allow for signing in and settling
Children 5 and under are welcome, but will need to be accompanied by an adult. You are more than welcome to stay in with older children to support them and mindfully create together!
To attend the full morning of workshops including Enchanted Potions and Mermaid Hair, select the "Magical Morning" Discounted double workshop option and please include a snack and water bottle for your child during the changeover.
