Musical Recorder from Seedling
What a great opportunity for children to make the ubiquitous recorder unique to themselves! Musical skills and artistic skills come together in this innovative idea from Seedling, a New Zealand based company. So often, children make a lovely craft kit but then don't have a chance to use their product. This time, once they have decorated the wooden recorder with the three tubes of acrylic paint included, they can take it along to the school recorder class and enjoy the admiring looks of the other pupils! I think that these would make a lovelt theme for a children's party - give your guests a recorder to decorate, then have a concert!
Seedling produce a vast range of distinctive stimulating craft kits designed to help children to develop basic skills. They cover a variety of interests and skills including drawing, gardening, sewing, science, imaginative play, painting and model building. The kits allow children to explore their imagination, spend quality time with the family, help improve communication skills, build relationships and gain confidence in using their own initiative.
