Mindful Magic

Hey, kids. What’s the most magical thing in your world? Is it your backyard treehouse, your favourite fairy pyjamas or perhaps the joy felt when hanging out with grandma?

We invite you along to the *Wonderland Spiegeltent* Garden to join Chony’s Art Room for Mindful Magic, a free guided art session to ponder the magic of the world we live in, and create your own visual representation of wonder.  

This drop-in style activity will allow kids to get in touch with their creativity using eco-art materials, whilst experiencing the magic of mindfulness; slowing down and being present in the moment.  

SESSION TIMES 

The activity will run in 4 x 30 minute sessions from 12 – 3pm: 

  • 12:00pm 
  • 12:45pm 
  • 1:45pm 
  • 2:30pm 

Bookings are not required and each session has a capacity of 20, operating on a first-in-best-dressed basis. Line up early so you don’t miss out!  

PLEASE NOTE 

Participants will use colourful eco-spray inks to reveal their artwork creation. Aprons will be provided, however it is recommended that kids do not wear their very best outfit just in case.   

This activity is for kids aged 4 – 12. Parents/guardians of children under 7 are encouraged to take part in the activity with their child. Some adjacent seating will be provided for parents/guardians of children 7 and above. 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION 

To ensure the safety of our littlest audience members, children must be accompanied by a parent or carer at all times. 

If you have specific needs for yourself or your child/children, please contact the [email protected] prior to your visit to discuss your requirements.
