About ART Room 109

Play and Create is an interactive and hands-on class designed to enhance your child's sensory development while providing an opportunity for them to explore their artistic side. Each session is thoughtfully crafted to engage both parents and toddlers in a fun and dynamic way.






What to Expect

1. Sensory-Rich Adventures

Our Play and Create classes offer a sensory-rich environment that will captivate your child's senses. Our classes are meticulously designed to stimulate their senses through various textures and colours. From squishing paint between their fingers, rolling and pinching playdough to exploring different materials, your toddler will have countless opportunities to explore and discover new sensations.


2. Process Over Product

At Play and Create, we celebrate the process of creating art, encouraging children to express themselves freely and without constraints. Watch as your little one experiments, mixes colours, and creates their own unique masterpieces, fostering their confidence and creative thinking along the way.


3. Bonding Time

Our classes provide a perfect opportunity for you to spend quality time with your child. Participate in the activities together, laugh, and make memories as you both indulge in sensory play and art projects. Strengthen your parent-child bond while supporting your child's development. 


4. Age-Appropriate Adventures

Every child is unique. That's why our classes are carefully tailored to suit the age and needs of your toddler. From simple sensory explorations to more complex art techniques, each child will receive an enriching experience. 


5. Safe and Nurturing

Your child's safety is our priority. Our classes take place in a secure and child-friendly space, with materials and supplies that are non-toxic and child-safe, allowing your toddler to explore without limits.


6. Social Interaction and Community

Play and Create provides a space for your child to interact with other toddlers, fostering social and emotional skills. Connect with other parents and build a supportive community. 


Developmental Benefits

Engaging in sensory art activities at an early age can significantly enhance your child's development. From fine motor skills to language and cognitive abilities, your child will flourish through sensory experiences. Our classes encourage children to express their ideas verbally, enhancing their vocabulary and communication skills. Group art projects also promote cooperation and positive peer relationships.

Chalkboard Murals

Chalkboard murals are fun, versatile and encourage creativity. Make a statement and transform any room. They are ideal for a feature wall in a bedroom, playroom, school, cafe or gym and more! They can offer interactive fun for you and your little ones. The blackboard paint will turn your wall into a chalkboard like surface, so that you can use dust free chalk or liquid chalk pens to draw pictures, doodle designs and explore pattern, shapes and colours. Simply wipe it clean and start again!
