Fun, quality classes
“Wonderful class. Very well run; fantastic ideas and different every week. Quality products used! One of the best classes for toddlers that I have been to and I have been too many. Oscar loves coming to Creation Station.” Nat Baines.
Shared experiences
“Tuesdays are extra special. I get home from work and I’m presented with the pieces of Art my son has made at his Creation Station sessions. It’s fabulous! And now I get to see his photos too. Definitely signing him (and my mum) up for more :)” Keely Nugent
Develop confidence
“George (3) loves his Creation Station class with Louise. It’s a great mix of arts and crafts with music and circle time too. George isn’t keen on painting at home, but at Little Explorers he can’t wait to get involved, which is lovely to see. The show and tell part at the end is also brilliant for building his confidence. He’s always very proud of his creations and can’t wait to show them to his big sister!” Emma Knight
Seeing things differently
“Creation Station sessions were such a lovely experience for Poppy every week and she got to do things that I wouldn’t have dreamed doing at home! I hope we may get to return at some point.” Karen Bingley

Explore something new
“We love Creation Station, gutted we don’t get to go now. It was the only group we did that was unique – music groups and gym groups you can interchange, but where else can Isobel go and smother herself up to her elbows in gold paint without getting told off?!” Julie Stonehouse
