Childrens Art Therapy
Does your child need a creative space to express themselves, develop their artistic ideas and have some fun? Our 9 week workshop supports your 5-9 years old child/ children to express their feelings, be creative, and connect with others.
Your child will paint, build 3D sculptures, sculpt with clay, explore sensory play, make cardboard projects, and experiment with a whole range of exciting art mediums. These activities will help your child to develop a stronger sense of self, strengthen self regulation and encourage friendship building.
This group is limited to 12 children and is facilitated by arts therapists.
The $60 fee covers 1 or 2 children aged 5-9 yrs living in the same household.
