Kids Activites
hunter gatherer designs has coordinated activites for children and families at numerous events. We devise activities aligned with the theme of the events. Our clients have ranged from small community fairs to local council festivals and other major celebrations such as SA Day in 2000, where the numbers of participants were in the thousands.

We design activites that encourage
  • hands on fun
  • use of multiple inteligences
  • use of natural materials
  • use or encourage recycling
  • generate minimal waste

For more examples of family fun and children's activites see the 'McCarob Garden of Fun' and 'The Scarecrow Project'.

Flower Painting Workshop
hunter gatherer designs coordinated the flower painting activity for SA Day 2000, with over 1000 children participating.

"The response to your site was terrific. It was wonderful to have a really creatively different activity as part of the event."
Marg Crompton, Entertainment Coordinator, SA Day.

Kidsland
hunter gatherer designs coordinated 'Kidsland' for SA Day 2002 with 12 artists working with many thousands of children over the course of the day. These environmentally friendly activities included solar powered boats, bilby masks and seed balls which were subsequently used for coastal revegetation.

Christmas Decoration Workshops
Each year hunter gatherer designs offers Christmas Decoration Activities for corporate or community family Christmas events.

"The 2002/03 Westwood twilight concerts were a great success, thanks in no small part to the wonderful workshop that you ran on December 6th 2002. Your skills were very much appreciated by both children and adults alike."
