🏆🌟WE DID IT! 🌟🏆

We’re absolutely BURSTING with excitement to share the news with you that Indigo Arts & Crafts has been awarded ‘Children’s Activity Centre of the Year 2024/25’ for Manchester and The North West! 🏆🎉

Back in October, we received an email to notify us that we had been nominated for The Prestige Awards. In November, we were delighted to hear we’d been shortlisted as a finalist by a panel of expert judges, who had the difficult task of whittling down the 67 nominations to just 12. A few months later, we received a phone call to inform us that we had won! Fast forward to the Bank Holiday Monday 26th May, when Bobbie and some of the team travelled to Birmingham to meet the judges and receive this incredible award in person! 🤝🥰

This win is a HUGE testament to the hard work, passion, and dedication of ALL of our team - and of course, the love and support from all of YOU! 💖✨ We couldn’t have done it without our wonderful families, kids, and community, who help to make every day at Indigo so special. 🙏🏻

Here’s to creating even more magical moments for all the little ones in 2025 and beyond, as we enter our 10th year! 🥳
Thank you for being part of this journey. Let’s keep having fun and we’ll see you soon for another fabulous summer adventure of creativity! 🚀🎉

What a magical time we all had over the weekend for our Harry Potter Ultimate Craft Day! 🧙🏻‍♀️🪄⚡️🎉📖💭💡🎨

The children arrived at Platform 9 3/4 and spent the day on a creative journey to Hogwarts, Hogsmeade, and Diagon Alley. 🚂

They then visited Ollivander’s to make their wands, which was followed by a sorting hat ceremony, where they met their professors for the day. The second half of the morning involved some wizard duelling and making their very own chocolate frogs, boxes and wizard cards. 🍫🐸

After lunch, everyone was very excited to recreate their own version of the Marauder’s Map followed by a FaceTime from a real snowy owl! (They would have been with us in person but Storm Bert caused a few problems which prevented them from getting over to us). The last class of the day was Potions with Professor Snape, who successfully lead the children to make glow in the dark slime in cauldrons. Finally, it was time to journey back home but it wouldn’t be complete without a visit to Honeydukes for a bag of Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans and more! 🍬

Thank you so much to everyone who came along and to all my lovely staff who took on the roles of their professors wonderfully!

Today has been filled with lots of spooky fun with a special Halloween craft day to finish off the week! Lots of children dressed up for the occasion as they made cauldrons full of slime, Halloween decorations and played party games. It’s been a truly wonderful week, thanks to everyone who has joined us and we look forward to seeing you soon at our upcoming workshops throughout the winter!

Today has been mostly about pumpkin carving! 🎃
The children had the opportunity to design their own mini pumpkin, beginning with the challenging task of scooping out all the flesh and seeds, before carefully transferring their paper design onto their pumpkins. We enjoyed a film over lunch then went out to collect a variety of small leaves to make clay leaf ornaments with. A fantastic day had by all!

Today has been a truly fantastic, jam-packed day of fun and adventure! 😃

Starting with junk-modelled canvases, the children created some wonderful layered, seasonal collages using a variety of different materials. We then went into bushcraft survival mode, learning how to create a fire using flint and steel techniques, collecting appropriate materials to build a Kelly Kettle fire, which we then used to boil up some water and warmed ourselves up with a hot chocolate, finishing off this fabulous outdoor session by toasting marshmallows over the flames.
The children then enjoyed a movie afternoon followed by a seasonal quiz. Such a great day had by all! 🥰🪵🔥☕️🍡🎨✂️🎬🍿
