First Workshops - Eastbourne - parent and baby group | Spun Glass Theatre

Creative workshops for parents and babies 0-18 months! Enjoy fun, supportive, artistic sessions every week by the award-winning Spun Glass Theatre.

Connection, art, creativity, music, storytelling, friendships and fun are at the heart of our popular First Workshops. Explore a variety of different creative activities together every week, including song-singing, music, movement, sensory play, and much more.
Run by our highly experienced artists, our focus is to introduce art and culture to your baby's early years and help them learn about the world around them in a magical way.

Throughout the term, we will work on various artistic projects together as a group, with an exciting schedule planned over a block of weekly workshops. Our workshop leaders will introduce you and your baby to new activities every week, helping you to discover new experiences together.

Welcoming a new baby into your family can be challenging, but there's no need to feel like you're going through it alone - having a supportive group around you can make all the difference when you are a new parent or carer. We create a welcoming, inclusive space where you can choose to be open about the challenges you experience with a new baby. Relax, recharge, connect with your baby, and make new friends.

Do you or your baby have any additional needs? We can have an open discussion about how we can best support you and adapt our sessions to make sure you feel included and comfortable - just let us know in advance, and we can arrange a call.
