Kid's Letter Writing Workshop
Advertisement
A cozy, creative, tech-free Sunday morning for kids aged 8-10.
Inspired by the children's book Writing with Nonna, this 3-hour workshop is hosted and led by the book's author, Olga Manzoni, offering children a unique opportunity to explore the joy of letter writing through art, kindness, and imagination.
It's a chance to step away from the usual rush of the week and spend a morning creating something from the heart, while discovering the excitement of sending and receiving real mail. Through hands-on activities, children will create their own stationery, decorate envelopes, make stamps, and write thoughtful notes inspired by the people, memories, and ideas that matter to them.
By the end of the workshop, they'll leave with a little ink on their fingers, a few handmade treasures, and a reminder that even in a digital world, a handwritten letter can still feel like magic.
With just 8 spots available, the workshop is intentionally small, allowing plenty of individual guidance, encouragement, and space for each child's creativity to shine.
What's Included
• A fun, age-appropriate introduction to letter writing
• Guided creative activities inspired by Writing with Nonna
• Envelope art and DIY stamp-making
• Creative stations, including kindness cards, future-self letters, and custom stationery
• A light snack
• All materials provided
• A personal note mailed to your child within three weeks after the workshop, so they can discover the simple magic of receiving a handwritten letter in the mail
• Optional: Add a signed copy of Writing with Nonna
