The Slime Studio opens at Goose Island Studio in St Helens for a drop-in afternoon from midday to 2pm. Easel Peasels invite children to mix, stretch and play with their own colourful slime: messy, creative and exactly the sort of session that saves a school-holiday afternoon when the weather is neither beach nor sofa weather.
No booking is required; just pop in if you are nearby. It costs £15 per child, pay on arrival, and no experience is needed beyond a willingness to get hands-on. Goose Island sits at Fakenham Farm on the east of the island, so it suits families in Ryde, Seaview or St Helens who want something more focused than a soft-play dash. The session runs two hours, which is long enough to make something satisfying without eating the whole day.
For more hands-on days for children, see family events on the Isle of Wight and the wider arts and crafts calendar. Easel Peasels also run term-time clubs and holiday sessions if this afternoon catches your child's imagination.
