Loco the Taco is designed with a younger age group in mind and Jacques the Chef is designed for a slightly older group, but the age brackets are very flexible. No previous art experience necessary, all materials provided, take your finished muppet home!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
