This experience is for anyone who likes wearing tutus! Join Teacher Jai on a magical experience creating a custom tutu that’s just as unique as you are. During this epic journey, kids will learn how to design, cut and sew their very own tutus!
First, a brief ice breaker to get to know one another (your favorite color and your dream tutu); then, magic making! Kids will use measuring tape and be shown how to measure their waist and the length of their skirt. they'll prepare tulle and elastic to cut. After cutting materials, kids will pin, and then be ready to sew!
Jai will guide children every step of the way, and demonstrate on the sewing machine proper seam allowance, stitching, and tension. Movement breaks will be included along the way during which kids will listen to a tutu dancing song and cut a rug! Figuratively, speaking 😊
Upon tutu completion, kids will receive a certificate from tutu design school and a magical wand to match their tutus and sparkling personalities!
Because of the materials required for this experience (~5 yards of tulle per child), pricing may vary depending on number of kids and will exceed Grasshopper Kids general pricing.
