About Doodle & Splat

Doodle & Splat is a pre-school children’s arts and craft class, aimed at children between 1-5 years.  Parents or carers stay with their child during the class allowing them to spend precious time together, creating works of art to take home and share with their families, without having to worry about making a mess or having to clean up!    Doodle & Splat is a wonderful way to meet up with friends, old and new, in a safe environment where children have the opportunity to have fun and be messy!

The class is divided between imaginative play and organised art and craft activities.  At the start of each session time is allocated for everyone to arrive and to explore the imaginative plan and organised activities located around the room.  These vary each week and will include

 

  • Slime
  • Water
  • Shaving Foam
  • Sand
  • Soil
  • Pasta
  • Play-dough
  • Chalk
  • Crayons
 
 
Once children have had an opportunity to enjoy the imaginative play areas, the class will group on the floor mats, where the class theme will be introduced, sharing with the children the activities that will be carried out.  The themes vary each week and will allow children to experience working with a variety of art mediums, including
  
  • painting
  • sponge painting
  • drawing 
  • gluing
  • glittering
 We believe that the best way to help a child learn the joy of painting and drawing is to experience it yourself!  We aim to encourage everyone to have fun, be creative and get messy at Doodle & Splat.
