Music Lessons in Pound Ridge, NY

Calling all young writers, illustrators, and storytellers! In this creative and inspiring workshop, students will dream up, write, illustrate, and bind their very own handmade books. Throughout the week, artists will explore what makes a story come alive—memorable characters, vivid settings, exciting conflicts, and imaginative details. Students may create stories inspired by summer adventures, fantasy worlds, friendships, mysteries, nature, family memories, or entirely original ideas. Guided prompts and brainstorming activities will help each child find a story they’re excited to tell. As writers and artists, students will develop their story structure, design their pages, create illustrations, and think about how words and images work together to create meaning. They’ll receive support and encouragement along the way, while also having room to make creative choices and develop their own voice. To complete their books, students will design a mixed-media cover and bind their pages together with ribbon, creating a beautiful handmade keepsake to take home and share. Perfect for imaginative kids who love writing, drawing, storytelling, and bringing original ideas to life!

Join us each week as we explore the wonderful world of whimsical art! Students will learn the fundamentals of illustration while experimenting with beautiful watercolor techniques. Throughout the month, we'll encourage each artist to build upon their own ideas, develop new skills, and gain confidence in their creative abilities. At The Giggling Pig, our goal is to inspire children to discover their unique artistic voice and bring their imaginations to life. September Theme: Nature & Animals We can't wait to create, imagine, and grow with your child this season!

Who loves the idea of reindeers wondering near by with a sled filled with gifts? I do, I do! Drop the kids off early for a 2 hour session where we will be making reindeer food and all kinds of little gifts ( wrapped so you can't see ). The studio will be decorated with a magical wonderland feel and we will be playing holiday music. We absolutely love this time of year and enjoy making it as special as possible for the little ones. Drop off - We will be serving some morning treats.
