If not, there are plenty of things to do to keep the children occupied for the week so you won’t have to listen to choruses of “I’m bored!”

Cape Breton Centre for Craft and Design

Cape Breton Craft knows that children are the future of craft and to help little hands create and have fun they offer a variety of cool, colourful and creative courses and workshops throughout the year and are committed to providing high quality craft programs for young children and young adults. The Centre welcomes opportunities to work with, and support the early childhood education community through such initiatives as special exhibitions, resource development and workshops for educators and parents.
