The UK’s leading children’s arts and crafts activity company launches new pre-school and after-school clubs, across the country. The hands-on, exploratory programmes are based on the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum EYFS. Each class is designed to support the individual child’s journey of discovery, through a wide range of different materials and tools, every week.

“We have been coming along to the art sessions since my little girl was 2 and I wish we had known about it when she was even younger, as babies can do it too. This is truly one of the best activity classes you can do for your child. They get to explore, create and learn - all at the same time. There is paint, glitter, foam pieces, sequins and glue. Basically, all the things children want to play with. And no need to worry about the mess. They provide full overall suits that cover them from head to toe and they provide water and cloths to wash those sticky hands and feet afterwards, so mums can breathe a sigh of relief. Every week is a different theme, so they don`t get bored doing the same thing, and you get to take your creations home. It is such a wonderful class I cannot recommend it enough.” stated Rebecca White on the independent Trust Pilot review site.

The classes have a five-star rating on Trust Pilot, from two hundred and eighty-eight reviews.

They are delivered nationwide by a team of DBS checked, first-aid trained, and safeguarding-trained Creation Station franchise owners. The classes:
