“Feel the rough edge of this pebble! See how smooth this one is—could the river have shaped it? Look at this path winding through the sand. Where might it lead?” Let’s dive into the hidden stories that rocks, trails, and natural textures tell us about the world around them.

Perfectly complementing the imaginative creations in Pebbles and Paths from Art 101™, this Lab 101™ module invites curious minds aged 3.5 to 5 to uncover the science behind nature’s masterpieces. From exploring how water shapes pebbles to investigating what makes a trail, this programme encourages hands-on discovery and playful experimentation.

This course is designed for independent learners but warmly welcomes parent participation. All supplies are included, so your child will have everything they need to connect with the wonders of nature in an exciting, interactive way.

Want to spark a lifelong curiosity about the stories nature leaves behind? Start with Nature’s Footprints and the Stories They Tell and watch the world beneath their feet come alive!

Frequently asked questions
1 What happens if I miss a class?
If you feel sick, please stay home and apply a catch-up lesson at a later time. Or, if you feel well enough, please join your session online via our app or this website. Regrettably, we can only provide catch-up lessons within your enrolled term based on availability. Any unused credit cannot be carried over to the following term.
2 What's your refund policy in a nutshell?
For the fairness of the other students, for our clever tutors who provide the lessons that you love, the studio cannot offer a refund if you change your mind. Our in-studio workshops are strictly made up of the limited number of students enrolled before the start of each school term and have the appropriate resources allocated to accommodate the optimal learning experience for all students in the course. To ensure the staff and supplies can be maintained for the course, payment for their use cannot be refunded so that the remaining students may continue the learning and development they paid for. In the event of Covid-19 restrictions, workshops will resume online. No refund can be issued if you decide not to participate in online sessions.
3 What do I need to bring to class?
If you are joining the workshop in person, just bring your lovely self! Please bring your own art pack for Clever Canvas™, Sketchbook Challenge™ and Super Matisse™ lessons. If you are joining online, great! Ensure your device is fully charged, and check with your tutor beforehand about what supplies you may need to prepare.
4 Which class should I join?
Choosing a class that suits your age group would be a great way to start. Your tutor will advise you if moving up or down a level may be more beneficial for your child. Check out the 'Find My Workshop' page for more details.
