Catterbox Puzzle

July 14 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Get ready for an afternoon of creativity and fun with our Chatterbox Puzzle Craft event! Kids will learn how to fold and decorate their own paper chatterboxes (also known as fortune tellers) and turn them into playful puzzle games. After crafting, children will fill their chatterboxes with riddles, animal actions, or mini challenges, then swap and play with friends. This hands-on activity helps build fine motor skills, encourages imaginative thinking, and is sure to spark lots of laughter!

Learning Objectives

  • Develop Fine Motor Skills:
    Practice precise folding and cutting to create the chatterbox shape.

  • Encourage Creativity and Self-Expression:
    Children design and personalize their chatterboxes with colors, drawings, and imaginative content.

  • Enhance Social and Communication Skills:
    Kids interact, share, and play together, practicing turn-taking and active listening.

  • Foster Problem-Solving and Critical Thinking:
    Creating and solving riddles or puzzles encourages logical reasoning and creativity.

  • Build Confidence:
    Sharing their creations and leading peers in games helps children gain confidence in group settings.

This event combines classic paper crafting with playful learning, making it a delightful and educational experience for young children.
