Happiness is slow crafting with your child.

The benefits of practicing slow craft with kids are many: learning patience, concentration, and perseverance; improving hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills; learning that mistakes are part of the process. One way to practice these skills is through simple hand stitching.

Special 30-minute parent and child workshop, hosted by American Groninger Jennifer Jansen. No experience or supplies required! Each child must be accompanied by an adult. Ages 3+ are welcome!

Happiness is sending a letter. Are you secretly in love with a co-worker, housemate or friend? Or do you miss your beloved grandmother who's far away?

Send a message to someone you care about - Lieke will help you write a love letter to send on the spot, typed out on a good old-fashioned typewriter.
