PARSLEY PIE ART CLUB ACTIVITIES!
Parsley Pie Art Club offers children a huge range of activities & projects to choose from plus a massive variety of materials they can explore & experiment with!
Classes sizes are small, which means each child gets plenty of individual help & Jenny can demonstrate many different techniques!
Each child is encouraged to use their imagination & initiative and can choose what THEY would like to do in each session!
Parsley Pie Art Club provides inspiration & help but with out taking over!
If children want to be left alone to “just get on with it” by themselves, they get that space, but they know Jenny is there if they change their mind or get stuck!
