4 creative workshop options for parties

Entertaining guests at a party is not always an easy task. It is no wonder that the number of mothers who invest in workshops and recreational activities to occupy part of the party grows every year. In addition to offering the little ones a different experience, the workshops help to present the theme in an unusual way.

Specialized companies offer monitors to supervise children and guide activities. If you want to save money, the family can organize the workshop itself. In this case, leave a friend or family member responsible for the activity. As a hostess, you won’t be able to handle everything yourself.

The activity should not be too long and should cater for as many guests as possible. Therefore, it is essential that it is not restrictive to too many age groups.

Here are some creative options:

planting workshop

Each child receives a vase, a bag of soil and a seedling. The monitor explains to the children how the planting process works and how to care for the plant to grow healthy. Children can also decorate the vases. This is one of the most versatile activities, serving children from 4 years old.

cooking workshop

In times of Junior MasterChef, culinary workshops are very welcome. Take guests to the kitchen and propose a different experience. They can prepare pizzas, cupcakes, sweets, cookies and other dishes quickly and easily. For children between 3 and 6 years old, the ideal is to prepare workshops where the focus is on decorating sweets, such as cakepops and cookies. Older guests can get their hands dirty and prepare more complex dishes.

sewing workshop

From the age of 7, children will also have fun sewing clothes and expressing their fashionista side. They can decorate T-shirts, hats or other accessories with beads, appliqués and cutouts. Making doll clothes also becomes a fun activity. Always keep an adult close by to supervise the use of scissors and needle.

craft workshop

Set up a bench and propose that guests make their own souvenir. It could be a decorated mug, a necklace, personalized bags or canvases. Use creativity and explore the theme chosen for the celebration.
