About the event
In this two hour class (10am-12pm on Monday mornings-September 9- Â Nov 4th- an 8 week series) Â there will be both the option to drop-off and come with your child. Ages four and up who are pottytrained and can stay with a group are welcomed to be enrolled as a drop-off artist. There will be two teachers who are early childhood educators and artists to lead the group. Â For ages 2-4, these artists can come with a caregiver/parent. Â Teachers will lead a pottery morning circle for children to explore different techniques and tools used for pottery sculpture including a song, movement, community building and pottery techniques that are developmentally appropriate for preschoolers. We will also explore the pottery wheel together one by one. We will have ongoing creative and nature play stations and free play for the rest of the class. Parents and caregivers will learn about early childhood play schema each week, and receive great instruction for at home extension projects for the rest of the week. Firefly Valley Pottery has a moving parts forest outdoor playscape that you can gain education around and inspiration for your own backyard play heaven! This eight week series will end with an art show and honoring each other and our dear small artists's true natures.Â
