Approach
Our designs are playful, sensory and interactive. We combine sensing technologies with crafts.
Our work considers the whole audience experience and how we can encourage interactivity and play, using all the senses to achieve an immersive experience. We specialise in making tangible interfaces that seamlessly combine traditional craft techniques with interactive technologies.

Our touring installations and performances are places of wonder to explore. They are accompanied by learning resource activity packs. Using the latest technologies we also make bespoke immersive experiences for arts organisations.

Our arts & craft workshops for early years can take place virtually or in person. We do STEAM workshops for children under 10 years old. Our Create@home series of arts and crafts actitivites connects to our installations.
The Gift
Storytelling is one of the greatest gifts that parents can give a child. In January 2021 we launched a free storytelling resource to support anyone who tells live stories to children. It contains videos, lots of tips, printable guides and digital tools to get you started on your own storytelling adventures!
Supported by Small Steps Big Changes.
