In this workshop, children will design and build a world of their own—small enough to fit inside a shoebox, yet big enough to hold their dreams. Using collage, clay, fabric, found objects, and simple construction techniques, participants will create imaginative miniature sets: dreamscapes, forests, tiny homes, floating heavens, fictional underworlds, or anything else their imagination conjures.

These shoebox sets will become the backdrop for the monster characters filmed during the previous Little Creative Morning, contributing to a collaborative mini film that brings together children’s voices, stories, and creations.

You’re welcome to join even if you didn’t attend the monster-making workshop. Each session can also be booked independently.

Please book a ticket for both child and accompanying adult.
