Game & Character Design Lab

Students design their own characters, worlds, and storylines for board games or video game concepts. They can illustrate characters, design game boards, or mock up digital levels. This blends art, storytelling, and imagination while introducing them to creative careers in entertainment.

Photography & Visual Storytelling

Kids learn the basics of photography using smartphones or digital cameras—covering composition, lighting, and perspective. They’ll create themed photo series (e.g., “Life at School,” “Nature Around Us”) and turn their work into a photo book or gallery exhibition.

Eco-Art & Recycled Creations

Children use recyclable and natural materials—bottles, cardboard, leaves, shells, fabrics—to create sculptures, wearable art, or functional pieces (like decorated plant pots). This teaches sustainability while sparking creativity, showing that art can come from everyday objects.

Cultural Art Exploration

Each week, kids explore a different culture through its art traditions (African masks, Japanese origami, Native American beadwork, Caribbean carnival masks, etc.). This builds appreciation for global creativity while keeping projects fresh and engaging.

Digital Design Lab

Kids learn the basics of digital illustration, graphic design, and photo editing using beginner-friendly software (like Canva or Krita). They can design posters, logos, or even mini comics, teaching them modern creative skills they can use outside class.
