Playing with Clay Children learn best when learning is made fun for them. Ghada Al Ghayeb’s studio in A’ali offers both kids and adults a chance to shape beautiful worlds with their hands.
Those who have visited Jumping Clay studio at Riyadat Mall will find that few things can be as relaxing and fun as kneading a ball of colourful clay into shapes of your desire. “Jumping Clay is designed as an educational franchise that offers a window into the magical world of 3D learning,” says Ghada Al Ghayeb. We’ve developed special programmes for schools, nurseries and institutions. Each lesson has a specific learning objective. These range from the easy material for the young ones, like rolling a ball to learn shapes, to more complex topics, like global warming and prehistoric men for older kids. We like to call this concept ‘Learn through Play’.” The mother-of-two from Hamad Town discovered Jumping Clay while on holiday in Thailand. Before she launched the venue, she trained in clay modelling in Belfast, Northern Ireland, as all franchisees of the brand are required to hold a certificate from the Jumping Clay Institute of Art. The studio has been a popular venue for kids’ and adults’ birthday parties as well as for baby showers. Ghada stresses that Jumping Clay has some of the safest, lightest and best clay products in the world. “Our clay has been tested to the highest international standards and has passed major tests for quality and safety. It has even passed safety food regulations. So while we do not recommend that you eat it, it is harmless if accidentally ingested. Jumping Clay has also been approved as the most eco-friendly clay product,” she adds. Launched by Bahrain Development Bank (BDB) along with the Supreme Council for Women, Riyadat Mall is the region’s first business incubator centre for women. i Visit info@jumpingclaybh.com.
