Little Builders

Toddlers can explore architecture and the built environment through sensory play, crafts and stories.

About Little Builders

Little Builders is the Farrell Centre’s EYFS programme for pre-school children, toddlers, and their carers. Taking place on the first Friday of the month, activities will include sensory play, arts and crafts and story time. Suitable for 7+ months/crawling stage upwards.

Enjoy a free morning of play with blocks, sensory toys and architecture books. Activities will include building towers and dens, designing green spaces and fun games to introduce ideas such as sculpture and town planning. Dip into our selection of children’s books to further explore shape, materials, maps and cities.

Little Builders is led by a member of the Farrell Centre team, but there is lots of opportunity for free play and exploration.

Friday 7 November – Sculpture

November’s Little Builders will look to the sculptures and monuments in our city. Think cardboard Angel of the North, a Greys Monument block tower and a very special game of architectural musical statues. Like all Little Builders sessions there will be sensory play, story time and creative activities.
