“My children really enjoyed the sessions – my children love to paint and use the clay to make models – we don’t do these things at home.”

“It was great to have something for the whole family to do – it encouraged us to spend time together outside – which we don’t often do.”

“I liked that I wasn’t bored and got to try new things.”

“It really helped to give us something to do each day.  Thank You!”
