Squish Happens: DIY Stress Ball Workshop
About This Event
Join us for a hands-on workshop where you'll mix up your own natural cloud dough and squish it into a stress ball that's 100% yours: your texture, your fill, your vibe. We'll walk you through the whole process step by step (it's part science, part sensory chaos, entirely satisfying), and you'll walk out with a squish that puts the sold-out ones to shame.
Materials and instructions included — just bring hands ready to get a little messy.

Story and Craft
Story time plus glue, googly eyes, and a take-home project — every Wednesday morning we will read a story (or two) then make something inspired by it — simple crafts sized for little hands, no mess left behind (that's our job). Great for toddlers through early elementary.
