Hudson Community Services: Community Education, School Age Care, Summer Programs

This is a creative and imaginative experience designed to encourage children to explore their artistic side. Children will work with a variety of materials and techniques to create works of art such as paint, markers, and collage materials. This class may focus on different styles and themes such as abstract art, nature art, or self-portraits. Children will be able to develop their artistic skill and techniques while expressing themselves creatively. This class provides an opportunity for children to build their self-esteem, develop their imagination and enhance their fine motor skills. The focus is on having fun, being creative, and exploring the joy of making art.

In this class we will be learning how to crochet. You will not need any experience in this beginners class. We will learn the fundamentals of the chain, single and double crochet stitches. Once these are mastered, we will be able to fly on our own to new heights. We will be making scarfs, blankets, potholders, hotpads, washcloths and more. We will also work on different projects using yarn, such as finger knitting, tiger eyes, yarn monsters, pom poms and yarn wigs.

Want some unstructured time to play in the toy area and meet new friends? The space is set up much like the free play time during the regular school year in School Age Care. Have time to relax and play!
