FAQ's

Who are CrafTea? CrafTea is made up of Laura Steerman and Ali Coghlan. We love all things Craftea and both being mothers we understand just how hard it is to try and come up with original ideas for kids parties year after year. CrafTea Parties was launched after some successful trial runs with mums and kids. We are both bursting with ideas and committed to make your childs next party a very special day. The idea for CrafTea Parties came from a general love of inspirational and easy crafts. With some opportunities to do host some craft parties for local children we knew we were on to a good thing when we got the feedback! What Crafts do you do? We do cookie decorating, t-shirt stamping design and painting and many more on request. Each party can be tailored for boys/girls or both, age-groups and abilities. We have hundreds of unique, colourful, quirky and exciting craft ideas – none of which you need to be any way an expert to make or even a crafty person to enjoy getting stuck into. Were pretty confident from experience that even the shyest, non-crafty, or super-active kids of any age will thoroughly enjoy a CrafTea Party. We go to the moon and back to ensure our parties are fun lively, interesting and inspiring and everyone gets a chance to let loose, get CrafTea and have a laugh with their buddies. When will CrafTea arrive & leave from my house/venue? We arrive around 15-20 minutes before the party so we can set up all the crafts, decorations and treats so it's all ready to go by the time the guests arrive. All going well, it will take 10 minutes to tidy up after the party afterwards. How long to parties last? The CrafTea party is an hour and a half long so most parents leave add an extra half an hour on to serve the kids food before the other parents collect their kids. eg. 2pm-4pm (Craftea will be there from 1.45-3.30pm)

Where are the parties held? That's completely up to you. We are happy to come to your house and set up everything and clean up afterwards or if you would prefer to have the party in a local community hall or venue please contact us and we will help you arrange it. Any venue charges are additional. Do I need to provide anything? No you just need to provide the venue and the space to do the crafts. We come fully prepared with tablecloths to protect your furniture and funky aprons for the kids to protect their clothes as much as possible although old clothes are advised to be worn. Does CrafTea provide anything other than Crafts? Oh we sure do!!!!!! CrafTea provides a Crazy Photobooth with tons of cool fancydress props including wigs, masks, feather boas, hats, bubbles on request etc.. We also have a Craftea photograper on hand to capture all the funny moments. All the kids take home their crafts in a CrafTea party bag provided. Parents can add more items to the party bags or we can provide filled party bags if needed at a small additional price. We also have a Birthday wishing tree for all the friends to leave birthday messages for the birthday girl/boy and loads of sweet treats and jellies for the kids to eat. We also provide personalised CrafTea Birthday Invitations included in the party package. My son is mad into Pirates, can you do a pirate themed Craftea Party? Yes we can tailor our CrafTea parties for any theme you like given enough notice. Please contact us at [email protected] to discuss and get more details of how we can make the dream come true! Do I need to pay a deposit? Yes we require a €50 deposit at the time of the booking and the balance paid on the day of the party. We can accept cheques and CrafTea uses PayPal or online transfer (just please be sure to quote your surname in the reference number). Will I lose my deposit if I cancel? If you cancel within 3 weeks of your party you will lose 20% of your deposit, within two weeks you love 50% of your deposit and within the week of the party you will lose the full deposit

The whole class needs to be invited.. any discounts for large numbers of 25+? Dont worry - Come talk to us and we will work something out with you. Large parties of 25+ kids will naturally differ from the CrafTea parties which are usually held and designed for 10-15 kids so we will need to make a special project plan for the supplies, running order of the day, craft activities etc. But don’t worry, it can be done! Give us plenty of notice of the date and required numbers, ages etc. and we will provide you with a quote and CrafTea Plan of Action for the Party in advance so you can assess everything. We’ll take into account the scale involved of kids, crafts, venue required, logistics and will be sure to give you the best value we can. After all, more the merrier. Can adults get involved at a CrafTea Party? Adults who are guardians or parents of the guests can get involved as little or as much as they like in a CrafTea Party. Sit back relax, or get involved helping your child to decorate their cookies - but remember eat one at your peril!!!

I'm So excited to be taking part in this event this evening in The Martello in Bray.

This week is Maternal Mental Health Awareness week and I've been kindly invited by the Community Doulas along with my friend Laura from QuaintBaby Ultrasound Art to paint some lovely bumps to raise awareness for Maternal mental health.

There will also be Yoga Nidra by Aoife Ahimsa Yoga Ireland and photography with Bronwyn and Sharon from hippyandbloom.

So looking forward to meeting all the lovely bumps this evening and raising awareness for such an important cause

Glow in the dark Easter Eggs!

Kids will love having an Easter Egg hunt in the dark. Here's how to make your eggs glow. https://www.beafunmum.com/2018/03/glow-in-the-dark-easter-eggs/

🚨 ALERT! 🚨 Time for an effective classroom management strategy! 🙌🏻 I got this idea from my cousin (an amazing high school English teacher) and her team. If you have a student who just needs a break (a time to just walk around and reset) then you can give them the purple folder. 💜 You can ask them to take it to another teacher. That teacher will automatically know that this child just needed a break out of the classroom or needed a positive adult interaction because the purple folder is the signal for that break. That teacher will then pass it to another teacher who’s a part of the purple folder circle, and it will continue until it reaches the last teacher in your purple folder circle. 👌🏻 All of the teachers have to be in on the purple folder routine, or it won’t work as well-obviously! 🤓 It’s a great time for those teachers in the circle to make connections with the student, start small conversations, or get the student back on track. 👍🏻 The student doesn’t know that the folder’s objective is to get them up and moving. This way the student also feels purposeful and helpful. 🤩

The recent safety concerns and ickiness with inappropriate content on Youtube Kids serve as a great reminder that while screen time when approached with intentionality and moderation is fine- a big drawback is that it threatens to pull kids away from the activities that are pivotal for healthy social and emotional development.

Sometimes we need a reminder to get back to the basics because REAL LIFE is the best place to learn how to live in REAL LIFE🙌🌎💗

Want more tools and insights from a Child Therapist on the true life skills your child needs (managing their emotions, self-confidence, positive communication skills, perseverance ect) to navigate successfully out in the world someday?

I love these clay nests that are the perfect size to hold painted eggs for Easter, great idea!

I love how this teacher set out an invitation to make a clay nest big enough to hold an egg. The results are lovely and all so different!
