A make-and-create birthday in Canton from The Friendship Factory of Dearborn, our featured local partner, where kids build, paint and design projects they are proud to take home.

The craft party gives every guest something to build from the moment they sit down. Families making the trip from Canton find guided projects laid out, with colors, patterns and finishes left to each child. Painting, building and decorating between them cover most tastes.
A craft party is for the child who wants to take something home. Canton families often pick it for mixed-age groups, since one guided project keeps a five-year-old and a ten-year-old equally occupied without splitting the room.
The party is structured as stations rather than a single sitting. For Canton families making the drive, it means the session stays busy from start to finish, with each station producing a finished piece to bring back.


Begin with the project itself. Canvas work suits calm groups, slime suits the messier ones, and build-and-take crafts cover a spread of ages. All materials are supplied and the clearing up is handled, so nothing follows you home but the finished pieces.
Then the practical part. Eight to fourteen children is the right range, invitations two or three weeks ahead, allergies raised at booking. Given the drive from Canton, a midday slot usually works best.
Guests rotate through several projects such as canvas painting, clay, suncatchers and more, all guided by a host.
Yes. Everyone takes home the projects they create.
Aprons and coverings are provided and they handle all the cleanup, so you can just enjoy the party.
