Activity 1: Tina the Toucan Painting

This acrylic painting is a popular activity where children will learn how to draw a delightful toucan sitting on a branch. Participants will explore shapes, colours textures adding branch details and gorgeous tropical leaves and flowers. This session will be a sure hit for kids to express themselves, and learn new art skills.

**Canvas is available for $10

Activity 2: Birdlife Inspired Pottery

Children love getting their hands dirty with clay. Birdlife is our inspiration, either tropical exotic species, pelicans, seagulls or eagles. Participants will be guided to create a simple bird shape, then wings, neck and head. There is a choice to make mother/child as well. We explore the correct joining techniques so each item will stick together and not fall off. Textures and details will be added at the end.
