March 19, 2011, Saturday - Going Buggy at MCBA
Time: 10:00am-Noon
Location: Minnesota Center for Book Arts, 1011 Washington Avenue South
For families with children ages 2 and up
Get ready for bugs with Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Do a LOT of folding and pasting for a LONG squiggly caterpillar (book). Create a flying, flapping, fluttering butterfly (book). Hide bunches of bugs in your grass (book). And make a glow worm (book) that really glows!
Join Ellen Ferrari for Saturday mornings of family book arts fun! Each workshop starts off with a story and game to warm up your creativity and then dives into a book arts project. Workshops accommodate a range of developmental levels so that adults and children (or adult/child teams) may choose to work together or side-by-side. Each participant receives supplies to use during the workshop, but may choose to bring one set home if working with his or her partner. Ellen will provide older children with suggestions for extending their learning.
$30 ($27 members) per adult/child pair; $15 ($14) each additional participant
