Give kids a creative space to explore their ideas, interests and dreams while transforming retired event signage into something they can take home and make their own.
The My Big Ideas Board is a hands-on Corporate Family Day workshop where kids colour, draw and complete a series of fun prompt cards before pinning them to their own upcycled board.
With a little more time to create and personalize than our drop-in clipboard workshop, this activity gives kids plenty to do while still fitting easily into a larger Family Day experience.
Each Workshop Kit Includes
- Upcycled rigid event sign, using the clean white reverse side
- Six colourful prompt cards:
- Something I Want to Learn
- Something I Want to Try
- Something I Love Doing
- A Place I Want to Go
- Something I'm Proud Of
- My Superpower Is...
- Two larger creative cards:
- My Big Ideas
- Draw Your Big Idea
- 12-pack of coloured pencils
- Eight oversized push pins
- QR code with instructions
Kids can colour, draw, write and personalize their cards before arranging them on their board. The finished board becomes a colourful snapshot of the things they love, want to try and hope to do.
At the end of the workshop, each child takes their finished My Big Ideas Board home to display and continue adding to over time.
Perfect for Corporate Family Days, employee family events, summer celebrations and corporate community events.
