“I wanted to offer something fresh, new and creative for children in the local area. Combining my own passion for arts and crafts with a joy of working with children, Indigo was born!”
Indigo offers a unique, fun and affordable holiday club experience for children in the Lancaster, Morecambe and surrounding areas, inspiring young minds to think creatively.
Indigo Arts & Crafts nurture an ethos based upon offering a diverse selection of creative activities that inspire imagination, develop life skills and cultivate learning.
We provide an array of outdoor craft and nature inspired activities for children, such as nature trails, scavenger hunts, miniature gardens, woodcraft, bushcraft and more!
Kids get the chance to stir up some creative magic in the kitchen by designing then creating with guidance, their own unique tasty treats, from scrumptious smoothies to hand-crafted cakes, learning valuable basic culinary skills along the way.
Children get to learn to develop their artistic techniques, working in a variety of different mediums – pencil, charcoal, soft pastels, oil pastels, paints and more.
Our more traditional crafty sessions include a selection of exciting activities including paper crafting, embroidery, friendship bracelets, pottery and collaging to name but a few.
Booking your child onto holiday club is now even easier, with our brand new online booking system. Compatible on all devices it’s now even faster to reserve a place, while saving you time (and paper!)

It is a natural and instinctive process for children to seek out friendship as youngsters, when left to themselves. Occasionally, however, it can also be a challenging experience for some and joining a new holiday club can stir a few worries. At Indigo, we believe that a little social nurturing can go a long way towards their interpersonal development and that friendship is not only good for their self confidence, but also for their soul.
Creativity allows the mind to switch off from daily troubles. A creative act such as crafting or baking can help focus the mind, and has even been compared to meditation due to its calming effects on the brain and body. Even just gardening or sewing releases dopamine, a natural anti-depressant. Creativity reduces anxiety, depression, and stress and it can also help process trauma.
As we enter week two of this very different, temporary life, there’s going to be moments where little bubbles of doubt, fear, panic, worry and exhaustion rise to the surface in all of us. It’s important to remember during this time, first of all – you’re not alone.
Indigo Arts & Crafts provide a unique form of party entertainment for creative kids, a children’s birthday party with a bit of a difference! Our bespoke party package can be tailored to your requirements, creating a distinctive and exciting experience, full of fun arts and crafts, be it in your home or a venue of your choice.
The children get the chance to be interactive and use their imagination creatively by making beautiful pieces of artwork and cool, quirky crafts, inspired by fun and engaging hands-on enrichment activities led by local artists, dancers, musicians and other exciting visitors.
