Learn how to make colourful felt balls with soap, water and wool. Use them as Easter decorations, or make a funky necklace or woolly monster.

 

Have you ever “felt” like being creative with wool? Families with young children will have fun learning how to roll and shape their own colourful felt balls using just soap, water and wool. Felt balls make fun — just not edible — eggs for Easter decorating, or you can use them to create funky necklaces and bracelets, woolly monsters, animals, flowers, and anything else your imagination can dream up! As you learn how to make felt, you will also discover amazing facts about the world’s most ancient textile. Did you know that it has been used around the world to make clothing, hats, rugs, and even houses? Did you know that felt can keep you both warm and cool?

Jumpstart your imagination and stretch your creative-thinking skills with these workshops for ages 5 and up. Themes change regularly and are designed to foster creativity. These programs may be pre-empted by a special event.
