How it works
We will run your interactive online course shared with you via ZOOM. For child protection, please request the Zoom meeting ID at least 3 hours prior the live session to Julia Scoble. Email address is: juliascoble@thecreationstation.co.uk.
What materials you need
We recommend that your child has access to coloured pencils, pens, crayons or chalk, child safety scissors, paper and card in different colours or white, watercolour paint if you have some.
Glue- PVA or a glue stick. Or you can mix one part flour with one part of water ( for example 1/2 cup flour and 1/2 cup water) until you get a thick glue-like consistency. Add a bit more water if it’s too thick. Mix well with a spoon to get rid of all the lumps.
Any decorations you have at home- sparkles, sequins, buttons, foam shapes. But again don’t worry if you don’t have any, you can always make your own.
Special Items week by week- These are great to have if possible but are not necessary to enjoy the classes!
