About this Event

Sand Art Outdoors at The Oval – Calm Creative Play by the Sea


Join us at The Oval Bandstand & Lawns in Margate for a relaxed outdoor Sand Art session designed especially for children who enjoy calm, focused creativity.

Calm hands. Careful pouring. Bright colours.
No rushing. No mess. No pressure.

Sand art is a gentle, hands-on activity where children sprinkle and layer colourful sand to create a picture or bottle to take home as a keepsake. It’s simple, absorbing and wonderfully satisfying.

✔️ Mess-contained (sand stays in trays)
✔️ No glue or glitter
✔️ SEN-aware and inclusive
✔️ Children work at their own pace

This session is especially lovely for children who enjoy:
• choosing their own colours
• predictable, step-by-step activities
• quiet, focused play

If your child prefers calm creativity over loud or high-energy activities, this is for them.

This is a FREE but ticketed event, with limited places available, when the tickets are gone the event is sold out!

Booking in advance is essential to secure your child’s space.

for ages 3 -10

If you’re able to, we’ll be collecting optional donations on the day (pay what you can). Contributions help us programme more children’s activities and family events at The Oval.

Food, tea, coffee and refreshments will be available from The Oval café and concessions.

Come along, get creative by the sea, and take home something colourful and made with care.
