Bag Art
(+1 more date)
Description
Come along to Edendale for a hands-on, fun-filled art experience where kids can get creative using the natural beauty around us!
In this Bag Art activity, children will craft their own personally designed print on a small calico drawstring bag using fresh flowers and foliage picked straight from our gardens. It’s the perfect opportunity for kids aged 4-10 to connect with nature while making a unique, reusable bag to take home. Plus, who doesn’t love a little art and nature mixed together?
What to Expect:
- Create Your Own Design: Use fresh flowers, leaves, and plants to make your own botanical print.
- Fun and Messy: Get ready for a little noise and some fun hammering as kids use a rubber mallet to imprint nature’s beauty on the fabric. (Don’t worry, younger ones will have plenty of help!)
- Take It Home: At the end of the activity, kids will have their very own colourful calico bag to take home and show off!
This activity is perfect for:
- Kids aged 4-10 with a love for art and nature
- Parents looking for a creative and engaging way to spend time with their little ones
- Children who enjoy making things with their hands
Details:
- Age Group: Best suited for ages 4-10, but older children can definitely still join in the fun!
- No extra charge for accompanying adults – just bring yourself along to enjoy the fun!
- Please allow time for parking – Edendale can get busy during the holidays.
- A bit of noise: There will be some hammering involved, so get ready for a little sound and lots of excitement!
