Overview

Mini Makers is Pitzhanger’s dedicated early years programme, designed to inspire creativity, movement, and musical exploration in children aged 0–5 and their families. Through a range of engaging sessions, little ones can develop key skills, build confidence, and connect with others in a welcoming and playful environment.

Our programme runs bi-weekly on Fridays and offers three unique sessions: Messy Play, where children can explore textures, colours, and materials through hands-on creative activities; Move and Flow, a movement-based session encouraging self-expression, coordination, and mindfulness; and Music and Rhyme, an interactive class filled with songs, instruments, and playful sounds to spark imagination and joy.

Each session is carefully designed and led by experienced practitioners to ensure a fun and enriching experience for children and their carers. Explore our sessions below and join us for a joyful journey of discovery and creativity!
