Reserve Your SpotMosaic Art Jamming
⭐ Most PopularMosaic art is one of the most visually satisfying crafts, and kids love working with the colorful tiles. These workshops usually involve placing tiny tiles, stones, or glass pieces onto a surface to form a design or picture.
Why it's great for families:
- Kids can learn color coordination and patterning
- Parents can join in and create alongside them
- Each piece becomes a one-of-a-kind keepsake
Clay Art & Figurine Sculpting
If your child enjoys working with their hands, clay art jamming are a must. These sessions let children mold, shape, and decorate their own clay pieces, from animal figurines to cute cartoon characters.
What kids will learn:
- Basic sculpting techniques
- How to use tools for shaping and detail
- Patience and focus
3D Figurine Painting
This is a newer trend that's quickly gaining popularity in Singapore. Kids select a figurine (like a superhero, princess, or animal), and paint it with their own choice of colors and designs. Some studios even offer 3D scanning and printing to make a mini model of your child!
Why families love it:
- It's personal and customizable
- Kids develop painting control and color theory
- Everyone takes home a "character" they brought to life
Sand Art Jamming
Sand art is simple but magical for younger kids. Using colored sand to fill in sticky templates, children create vibrant images without any mess or complex tools.
Benefits for young kids:
- Develops hand-eye coordination
- Encourages choice and color play
- No need for scissors, glue, or mess!
Parent-Child Painting Program
These workshops usually focus on painting canvases side-by-side with your child. You can follow a theme or just let your creativity guide the session. Often, the goal is not to paint something "perfect" but to enjoy the process and bond through art.
Why it's special:
- Enhances emotional connection
- Encourages mutual support and creativity
- Suitable for all skill levels
Lacquer Fan Workshop
This culturally rich activity involves painting on traditional hand-held fans using lacquer paints. It's creative, elegant, and also a great way to introduce kids to heritage crafts.
Highlights:
- Combines art and culture
- Kids can create gifts or souvenirs
- Lightweight and travel-friendly keepsakes
Craft Café Experiences
Some family-friendly cafés in Singapore offer weekend craft sessions while you enjoy brunch. While they may be more casual, they're perfect for short, spontaneous outings where art meets snacks.
Example locations:
- Café Melba (often hosts weekend craft corners)
- The Artground (play + art)
Pop-Up Craft Events and Fairs
During school holidays or special weekends, various malls and community centres organize pop-up craft booths or mini workshops. These are often free or low-cost and allow children to try multiple types of crafts in one day.
Keep an eye on:

- Community club events (via OnePA.sg)
- Holiday art camps
