What to Expect

Hi there!

I'm Kristie – a mom to four delightfully curious and creative kids and the biggest advocate for PLAY. I love seeing my kids learn about the wonderous world around them and expand their sense of discovery, individuality, confidence and self-expression through sensory play and process art. Some of my favorite memories with the kids are flicking paint on a huge canvas, swirling our hands through huge bins of water beads, or getting covered up to our elbows in glittery shaving cream and creating absolute magic with just about anything. This is the experience I want to bring to you and your little ones too – creating opportunities for exploration as they journey on their whimsical way through childhood!

  • "My son had such a magical experience in the six week spring session of Whimsical Ways. He was able to immerse himself in art get as dirty and messy as he wanted and create anything he could imagine. We brought home some pretty stellar pieces, and the best part is, I didn’t have to prep or clean up after any of it! I highly recommend this class for all kiddos."
