Calm and Create

Workshop

Make clay creations that are nature inspired (coasters, leaf bowl, flower lid, hedge hog, caterpillar, butterfly, ladybird) The focus is on the joy of creating, not the end product. An inclusive, neuroaffirming, trauma-informed spaces for neurodivergent and disabled children, specialising in clay as a sensory, child-led practice.

Grounded in professional training and lived experience, sessions are fun, flexible, and support creativity, regulation, and confidence while ensuring every child feels safe, respected, and free to express themselves. Parents must stay with or nearby to co-regulate their children if needed. Parents encouraged to create with their children. Ages 8-12.
