Storytelling and sensory crafts with Ella Phillips
About this Event

Join Ella Phillips in a multi-sensory workshop that blends storytelling, interactive fun, and creativity.

In this session Ella will bring her brilliant picture book series Grandma's Magic Recipes to life with scents, sounds and textures and make sure we are all enjoying the winter season!

Book Blurb: A joyful celebration of food, family and the magic of cooking together.

At Zee's Grandma's Christmas party, there is the smell of sugar and spice, calypso music and dancing, and lots and lots of friends and family . . . but no Grandma! Where could she be? She's in the kitchen, of course, waiting for Zee to help her turn dough into yummy ginger biscuits. Join them as they celebrate a plant-powered winter in this heart-warming story and recipe book. Includes two irresistibly warming winter recipes for plant-based gingerbread men biscuits and spiced hot chocolate.
