Description
Create a Magical Story Garden in a Shoebox! Calling all young storytellers and nature explorers! Join us for a delightful hands-on activity where imagination blooms and stories grow wild. Children will craft their very own Story Garden in a Shoebox using natural materials like twigs, leaves, pebbles, moss, and flowers. Whether it’s a fairy forest, a dragon’s den, or a secret woodland hideaway, each garden becomes a stage for storytelling magic. Once their miniature world is complete, children will use it as a prompt to invent and share their own tales—bringing their gardens to life with characters, adventures, and wonder. What to expect: · A fun, creative crafting session using natural and recycled materials · A chance to build storytelling confidence in a relaxed, supportive space · A take-home garden that keeps the story going long after the session ends Perfect for ages 5 and over. All materials provided. Just bring your imagination
