  Play & Learn is an invaluable source of ideas for children who love to create. These projects are not only fun, they also stimulate imagination and develop important skills for little hands and minds.
  Drawing & Painting: children love the sensations of blending colour, texture and design. Experimenting with different types of paint or different drawing tools can lead children on a sensory adventure. Encourage experimentation and let different techniques be combined to create delightful new effects.
  Printing: encourages appreciation of texture and the development of design through the use of repetition. The world is full of interesting shapes and objects - sponges, leaves and fruit and vegetables - make the most wonderful prints, as well as tennis balls and flowers.
  Collage & Construction: collage is an exciting technique of pasting, gluing, taping and stapling materials such as paper, fabrics, dried foods and other objects. Construction encourages children to further explore tactile and colour combinations.
