During The second week of the September School Holidays. The Artsorted Worx, will be running the Gardentown children's Holiday Program as well as our own. Its called The Paper Shop Project......
Which place does a parent frequent the most? Shopping centres would certainly rate high on the list. At some stage in everyone’s childhood, they played ‘SHOP’. Whether it be selling cars, pretend food or homemade artworks they have created.
Some of the best lessons in math, language development, science, and social studies are hidden among the boxes, bags, and cans on the shelves, and in the glass cabinets of the local shopping centre.
Making shopping engaging can keep children involved in this wonderful learning experience and less likely to whine and fuss. This is turn ensures fewer disruptions to a parent's to do list whilst shopping and the potential to accomplish all they set out to do!
As the festival is being held in a shopping centre, it is a great opportunity to draw inspiration from the surrounding atmosphere. Each workshop/activity will have a shop theme; exploring not only the experience of going shopping in role as consumer, but also from a shop keeper’s point of view in displaying stock , finding products etc.
3 different themed workshops will run 3 times a day @$15.00 per child per session. Ages 4-8.
