WHY:
Our video resources are a direct response to COVID-19 and social lockdown. We wanted to reach out to families and create a digital space for us all to share the joy of stories and art making together.
The project has given us a purposeful lifeline to stay connected. We hope our resources inspire creative adventures in your homes and with friends online!
Huge thanks to Hackney Libraries for supporting our work.
We can’t wait to see your creations, so go on, get making…
