About This Activity
Description
Experience all the fun of making a weaving, dyeing fiber, spinning yarn, felting a diorama and have fun with these hands-on immersive activities. Fiber arts is a great tactile experience for little learners!
At the Fiber Arts Summer Camp, students learn a little about color theory and different types of fibers. Then dive into dyeing wool with food grade safe dyes. Once the wool is dry, learn about wet felting and spinning yarn on drop spindles. Make friendship bracelets from their spun wool that you can wear home. Work on warping simple looms and weaving with yarns, including the students own handspun. Create little needle felted dioramas with wet felting pieces and spun yarn. Wear clothing that can be stained for the 1st day only. All supplies are provided. Before Care 7:30-9a @ $25 week
