Animation & Art Workshops, Children's Picture Books and Illustration
Brrr!! IT IS COLD!!!! But it is January 🙂 Since new year I’ve been thinking a lot about vikings, norse legends, Up Helly Aa and doing some drawing. I would love to have a winged hat.
What a lovely day I had yesterday in Honiton with the guys from Magic Carpet Honiton Group. In a few hours we made shadow puppets, backgrounds and a puppet theatre!
There was lots of lovely singing all accompanied by the wonderful Margaret on her mouth organ. What a treat 🙂
Less than three weeks till xmas! :/ But that still leaves plenty of time for a Christmas Animation Workshop! See the flyer for details and make sure you book!
Hamilton House annual Christmas shop opens today! I’ve got some cards and prints there for sale, and there is lots of beautiful, original work there that would make wonderful christmas gifts for special people!
We had a brilliant day at Magic Carpet in Honiton yesterday making shadow puppets – we even managed some singing and dancing! 🙂 Really looking forward to the followup session next month
Here’s the animation we made together at Teign Heritage Centre one Thursday afternoon during half term. It’s not half as scary as it sounds 🙂 so do have a look! it was a really fun afternoon, with lots of lovely talented kids and their grownups. I’m planning to start running lots more workshops in Teignmouth soon – watch this space! 🙂
Thanks to everyone who came to yesterday’s animation workshop at the brilliant Teign Heritage Centre and made it such a success!
I’m now going to spend the weekend studying your feedback forms and try to cook up some more activities for kids between now and Christmas!
If you weren’t able to get into the workshop yesterday I’m really sorry, it was a first time in Teignmouth for me and I really didn’t think it would be so popular, which is great but not so good if you didn’t get in :(.
If you want to find out about future workshops and make sure you get a place, get in touch via the website Contact page, it will be great to hear from you!

Hi Everyone! I’m putting on my Midnight Monsters Workshop at Teign Heritage Centre on 27th October 2-5pm – come down with your kids and spend the afternoon creating scary shadow monsters and animating them on a lightbox! Ideal for 5s and up – but younger children also love it with a bit of help from a grownup! And grownups also love it. :). It’s £5 per child and free for adults.
Book through me (Claire) – call 07746326860
Hope to see you there!
Hello Peeps!
Here is your animation – at last! Sorry for the delay me and my old mac had some tech issues, but all good now 🙂
Keep in touch about future film screenings and workshops by sending me your email address via the Contact page and hope to see you all again soon
Thanks to Junction 3 Library for hosting the event and Knightstone Housing for funding the screening and workshop.
A new venture taking off in Easton at the brilliant Junction 3 library is Easton Kids Film Club. Small World has teamed up with Junction 3 library and community housing provider Knightstone to create a film club as part of the Into Film initiative run by the British Film Institute.
We staged our first event last Friday- a screening of the classic children’s movie Chitty Chitty Bang Bang plus a creative workshop, where we made movie scenes in a box – and we’re hoping there will be lots more films and workshops to come – all FREE.
Next Friday 26th August will be our second event – featuring the beautiful stop-motion animation James and the Giant Peach with animation workshop to follow. ALL FREE!!
Details on the flyer below – hope to see you there!
