Christmas Poster

Our first program is finished and I just want to thank all the children and parents that came out and explored with me. I learnt alot about the kids and the materials! I hope that everyone enjoyed the canvasas and has a masterpiece for their walls. I had a great time learning with all of you and your children, I feel extremely lucky to have found my 'niche.'
I have started registration for Jan 09 already but hope to see familiar faces at the christmas craft hr in Dec.

Christmas Craft

Creative Exploration is hosting a Christmas craft hour in Dec. I will have 2 - 3 different crafts for the kids to explore, leaving as much interpretation and exploration as I can for them. We are going to make Christmas cards and wrapping paper with snowflake prints, snow globes, sculpt soapy snowmen, and decorate pine cones with as many sparkles as any child can get their hands on! It will be the regular drop in fee of $10 with $1 going to the No.6 Mine Park, on Dec. 11th at 10 - 11am at the regular place - Cumberland Community Church on 3rd and Penrith.
Hope to see you there!

Punch Cards

New Punch Cards

Ideal for parents and families that are not able to make it every week. Just purchase a $45 punch pass good for 5 classes. This will save you $5 off of 5 drop ins. Same rules apply, pay per parent.

DVD's on Sale

I almost forgot, I will take DVD orders from interested parents on the last day of classes and then will mail them out to you. All the DVDs will be the same group of photos seen on the blog taken from the last 10 weeks. DVD's are $10 each and $5 will be donated to the No.6 Mine Park.

Last Week

Hello Parents
Just reminding you that this is the last week of our first 10 week program. Creative Exploration will start up again in Jan, please let me know if you want to sign up again and if you have a preferred day in mind, I am flexible. What do you think of a punch card rather then a registration fee? I have been thinking of just running the program weekly from Jan until May and just offering punch cards for Parents to purchase much like the Rec. center. I may have a few questions for people to fill out on Thursday to help me make some decisions for Jan.
I am planning a Christmas craft for the beginning of Dec. I will send out an email with the date once all is in order.
This week we are bringing back a few favorites and introducing a few new ones because this week everyone gets their own canvases!!!! I am so excited for all the parents to have a masterpiece hanging in their homes! Remember all the left over art work from the last 10 weeks will be hung up at the Cumberland Rec center during playgroup on Friday. So you can take home any of your childs work left behind or just admire all the beautiful work.
See you on Thursday
Becky

More Painting Fun!

Tracing

Not too many photos this week because it was busy!!! Hello and thank you to all of our new friends that dropped in last Thursday. Week 8, Tracing, dot to dot, building puzzel pictures, spray painting stencils. I was quite partical to the puzzel pieces table, if I could have I would have built puzzel pics all class. Instead, I cut them out!!! It was interesting watching the kids trace all the objects and shapes on the table. I liked seeing the pictures that they were building and creating like putting stars on top of trees and finger nails on fingers. The spray paint was a hit as always but I think that I should invest in some better sprayers for the kids. My last minute stencils didn't hold up either...should use a better material for those. Next time.
Next week, week 9...I have so many great ideas that I want to save for the canvases on week 10 but maybe I could bring out all the favs from all the previous weeks for week 10?
