A unique opportunity for children to explore the art of creative recycling using natural materials. In this workshop, participants will learn how to create one-of-a-kind rings starting from simple elements such as reeds, seeds, and shells. Each child will be guided through the process of cutting and smoothing the reeds to create the base of the ring, which will then be decorated with natural materials, transforming it into a personalized piece of jewelry.

This activity offers an engaging experience that stimulates creativity and imagination, allowing children to explore traditional crafting techniques. With the guidance of Master Craftsman Federico Coni, participants will not only learn manual crafting skills but also the importance of valuing natural resources.

At the end of the workshop, each child will take home their own ring, perfect as a special gift for Valentine’s Day or as a keepsake of a day dedicated to creativity and nature.
