Collage Creations
Collage Creations is a fun, hands-on art activity where participants create unique designs using cutout paper and construction paper. Perfect for all ages, this activity encourages creativity and self-expression—and no scissors are needed. 🎨
Dino-Scapes with Playdough
Create dinoscapes with dinosaur figurines and playdough, or cover a dino in clay and pretend to dig up a fossil! How many dinosaurs do you know by name? Organize them by color and size—there’s no wrong way to play, for all ages. 🦖✨
Paint Stix Drawings & Construction Paper
Let your creativity shine by drawing vibrant pictures on construction paper with paint stix! With no liquid paint, smocks, or water required, this mess-free art activity makes creating easy and fun. The smooth, easy-to-use paint stix help artists of all skill levels make colorful artwork they can proudly take home. Perfect for all ages and a great way to explore art without the mess. 🎨✨
2-D Paper Sculptures
What do you think happens to the drawings left behind from paint stix? We recycle them into new artwork pieces! Use colorful construction paper scraps to create a one-of-a-kind 2D paper sculpture—build a mosaic, a flower, a house, or something entirely your own. This open-ended activity requires no scissors and encourages creativity at every level, making it perfect for all ages. 🎨✨
Blocks & Playdough Building
Sensory collage is a great activity for all ages! We provide age-appropriate scissors, glue, glue sticks, and a variety of materials to work with. Cut, rip, and glue different textures to your art piece. Explore, experiment, and get creative—whether you create a picture or something completely abstract, the possibilities are endless! This is a great way for children to practice using tools like scissors and glue (with adult supervision).

Markers and construction paper come together to spark imagination—draw bold lines, playful patterns, or colorful scenes and let your ideas take shape in a one-of-a-kind artwork. Open-ended, creative, and perfect for all ages. 🎨✨
