Drip Drop Play
Drip Drop Play is a calming and beautiful experience for you and your child featuring an immersive world of water and ice.
Join our presenters, Drip and Drop as they take you through enchanting spaces that leave room for discovery and creativity with your little one. There are some short performances from the musician facilitators, but mostly space for you to create and explore in the space together.
You can expect to leave feeling inspired with ways to make music and sound using water in your own kitchen and backyard!
