Sew and Paint Embroidery Canvas

This experience will expose kids to the art of embroidery, allowing them to express themselves through paint and stitching, all while creating a everlasting and unique piece of art.

Kids will share ahead of time a personal photo or image of anything they like (person, animal, object) or a favorite cartoon character as inspiration for their piece for Teacher Jai to create an outline for them to use during the experience. Kicking off with a short introduction, kids will share the photo or character they chose and why. They'll pick colors for the background of the embroidered canvas and their embroidery threads. They'll get to see example works, and begin to paint the background of their canvas.

As the background paint dries, kids will learn how to thread their embroidery needles and practice back stitching. Once the canvas is ready, they'll embroider their image or character outline, and work together with Teacher Jai's guidance to complete their embroidered canvas. A truly special way for kids to try and discover a rare artform.

What Parents Are Saying

We LOVED everything about Grasshopper! The customer service experience was exceptional! I felt like so much intentionality was taken to ensure that the activity would be both age appropriate and fun for my kids. Our experience leader was so easy going and chatted with the kids during the experience, and really took the time to engage and get to know them. We are definitely going to be using Grasshopper again! Thank you!

Grasshopper offered my daughter an opportunity to learn in a vibrant, fun setting that was continuously customized for her attention span and interests. Her Grasshopper teacher was fun, engaging and supremely personable. She took the time to get to know my daughter before diving into anything. I felt more than comfortable leaving my daughter in such capable hands…and love that she truly learned some new things from the experience. We will be using Grasshopper regularly to broaden her horizons and expose her to new concepts in a safe and compelling way. The icing on the cake is that the experience took place in our home, at a time that was convenient for us!

Our Grasshopper experience was amazing! I have four very curious kids at different ages with different interests, and the experience had all four of them engaged the whole time. Also, as an educator, I was very impressed with how the teacher led the program. She obviously knew what she was doing, and the minute she left, my kids were asking for another experience.
