Information for parents

Art is all about having fun and exploring. Allowing children to express themselves through Art is a vital part of development. Whether this be through drawing or painting to junk modelling or even more adventurous projects. Art can be as simple as a drawing of their family and can be a fabulous way to connect siblings and families. Please find below some family friendly places you can visit in Yorkshire and some useful websites with easy and simple crafts to keep the little ones entertained!
