Sundays at 421 this spring got a whole lot messier!
Join us for Messy Play, a hands-on workshop series for young explorers ages 1-6. In this session their little hands (and feet!) can dig, stomp, splash, and explore!
Inspired by our spring exhibition Ana Escobar Saavedra: It Starts Where It Ends, this hands-on sensory session invites little explorers to discover the textures and forms of natural materials through digging, stomping, and water play.
By engaging with stones, sand, mud, and water, little ones will explore the world around them in a fun and creative way.
- Dig & Discover – Using scoops, brushes, and their hands, toddlers will dig through kinetic sand, mud, dirt, and pebbles to uncover hidden stone treasures in sensory trays.
- Stomp & Print – With paint-covered feet, toddlers will stomp on large sheets of paper, creating playful abstract prints and textured patterns using bubble wrap.
- Water Wonders – Through interactive water and chia slime stations, toddlers will scoop, splash, and explore the movement of stones and toy animals in water play.
- A perfect session for little explorers to engage their senses, build motor skills, and enjoy the wonders of messy play!
Please note: Parents or guardians must accompany children during the workshop.
This workshop is 20 AED per participant.
