Why Parents Love Jellybeanstreet

Love My Art

✅ Verified Customer | Maddison

I recently went to a workshop with my kids. Not only did they have a blast, I just received the designs for the art using their pieces and they are spectacular. I was only looking to have one piece but loved the designs so much, I bought two. I can't wait for them to arrive and I can see them hanging.

So fun!

✅ Verified Customer | Kate

I loved everything about the Jellybeanstreet workshop. The whole process was so organized (can you imagine a room of toddlers being organized? But it was!). The painting activities were fun, innovative, and perfect for short attention spans. My 3-year-old loved trying new tools and techniques, and it was completely stress-free for me. We upgraded our ticket to the graphic art package, and the final artwork is now a stunning piece haning in our home and cherish. Now my older child wants their own turn! Highly recommend to everyone!

Picasso said everyone is an artist but I couldn’t see it in my child. The end result the team at Jellybean put together turned out to be a masterpiece! Super happy with the stretch canvas in large format, perfect in my newly renovated dining space ❤️

5/5

A great day with a lasting memory

✅ Verified Customer | Genaya

My three year old loved the jellybean session. Playing around with different materials and painting whatever her heart desired. What we didn't expect is how well her art would be bought together in a final piece - loved by us and both sets of her grandparents. The art now hangs on the wall in all three houses! The whole experience was great and the team is absolutely sensational. The best bit is how proud my daughter is of the art work, and the big smile she has every time she walks by it!

Jellybean Workshop

My daughter and I had so much fun at the workshop, playing, exploring and having fun with paint and mess! The print process was easy and we had lots of options to choose from. We can’t wait for the print to arrive and to hang it in our home!

5/5

Great Fun Messy Experience

✅ Verified Customer | Angela

My two children (6 and 8 years of age) attended the Father's Day workshop in Victoria. I was afraid at first that my older child would not enjoy the messy play and the whole painting experience but to my surprise he absolutely loved it. Without a doubt, both children had fun and made lots of shapes and colours. Ultimately being messy and not having to clean up was added bonus. After receiving their designs, we loved them even more, especially how creative the designer was with the turtle theme. Thank you for the great experience and a master piece to showcase at home.

5/5

A great experience & priceless art to keep

✅ Verified Customer | Chelsea

We love the art that was created from our daughter’s workshop and we love the idea we now have paintings to keep to reflect back on her younger years, for years to come.

5/5

Painting Session

✅ Verified Customer | Caitlin

Attended painting session with my 2 year old son. Final artworks created were amazing and so hard to choose between that I got all three. Definitely recommend to anyone who wants something one of a kind inspired by your little one.

4/5

The artwork everyone needs

✅ Verified Customer | Emily

Our experience was truly remarkable. This isn’t just a sensory adventure for your little one; it’s a journey that transforms their creative expressions into stunning artwork that tells a unique story. The concept of turning your child’s lines, handprints, brushstrokes—anything—into a carefully curated masterpiece is brilliant. We had the most wonderful morning together, immersed in painting. Sadie was so enthusiastic and joyful; time just seemed to slip away as we embraced the freedom of creativity. Handing over her artwork to the incredible team of graphic designers felt effortless, and they paid such careful attention to our style. What began as simple lines and circles is now a cherished piece of art that will be with us forever. What makes it even more special is the deep meaning behind it—something you couldn’t buy off the shelf. The entire experience was seamless, and I can’t recommend it enough. Whether it’s for Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Christmas, or any occasion, this is a truly sentimental and meaningful piece of art. So, what are you waiting for? Go and book this unforgettable experience today!

Art Workshop

✅ Verified Customer | Amanda

I attended an art work shop with my 2 and 6 year old We had so much fun geting messy and learning different ways to make art But I was absolutely blown away when I viewed my children's art work in to an art piece and to choose which art I wanted on a canvas was so hard and to see thier handprint incorporated in their art brought tears to my eyes best keepsake I could ever purchase

Wonderful Workshop

✅ Verified Customer | Alana

My 3.5yo daughter and I had a wonderful time at the Jellybeans workshop. There were so many things for her to try - the hour went so quickly (but was the perfect amount of time for her attention span!) Ruby was wonderful in engaging children of all ages in the creative process. And the final pieces are incredible - we couldn’t decide which one we liked the most so we have bought all of them! Highly recommend

Three year old birthday party

✅ Verified Customer | Dayna

Faye produced a magical birthday party for my three-year old and her friends. The kids, young and old, had a blast and I was amazed by the artwork produced. What a clever event. As a bonus, we were thrilled with the artwork, which had some magical childhood touches my girls will long cherish as their own. Thank you Faye!

Amazing

Lots of materials to explore and create

5/5

Great idea

✅ Verified Customer | Linda

My daughter loves paint and getting to do so many styles I was thinking how is this going to look so great? Well OMG the prints were so good, we choose the field of flowers which had some meaning to us. We hope someone else will like it too. We even had to save them to get some cushions too.

5/5

The best experience!

✅ Verified Customer | Michelle

My littles and I had a blast at this activity. Not only was it well planned out and fun, Kim made us feel so welcomed. We can’t wait to see the artwork!

5/5

Big fun for littles!

✅ Verified Customer | Chelsea

We invited Jellybean St to run a session for the littles in our Mothers Group and it was simply brilliant! Damien did a fabulous job wrangling a bunch of excitable 2.5yos and helped them to create some really fun and interesting pieces. Not only that, he brought absolutely everything we needed along with him: tiny tables and chairs, tarps, smocks, all the paint and painting utensils you could dream of, the drying rack etc etc AND packed it all down again at the end in a jiffy. The kids and parents all had a blast and I cannot wait to see what the final designs look like. Couldn't recommend Jellybean St more highly and hope to create again with them soon.

5/5

Wonderful artwork experience

✅ Verified Customer | Belinda

My son really enjoyed the workshop session as he was able to make a number of art pieces. The designs that have been put together by the designers are wonderful. I am thrilled at the ability to have one-of-a-kind artworks in my home. I plan to take my younger son to the workshop so that he is able to design his own artwork too.

5/5

Messy Fun!

✅ Verified Customer | Rebecca

What a great activity to do together. The workshop was relaxed and fun. How to use the tools was modelled and shown by Mel, our host, but when the kids wanted to do something differently or go back to a previous tool, they could do this. It was very much paced in a way to keep kids engaged and exploring their creativity. I'm looking forward to seeing the beautiful artworks transformed into a keepsake for us. Thank you!

5/5

Beaming with Pride

✅ Verified Customer | Michelle

Our son was so proud to see his artwork on display and even more proud knowing that it was supporting a great cause.

5/5

Stunning, Cherished Forever

✅ Verified Customer | Nancy

The end result of the workshop was simply stunning. Our daughter's artwork was transformed into a piece of art that we will cherish forever.

5/5

Passionate, Creative, Impactful

✅ Verified Customer | Peta

We approached the guys from Jellybeanstreet to help us out with a print for a fundraiser event we were holding. They jumped at the opportunity, provided us with some great ideas and a fun filled workshop for our daughter Mia. The team are so passionate about their work it definately shines through when they are with the kids, even more so when the prints sell and the funds go through to our nominated charities.

5/5

Obsessed, Stunning, More!

✅ Verified Customer | Edvina

Received the artwork today, stunning! I am obsessed - need one in every room! Now for my next piece - hopefully I don't get in to trouble with hubby for ordering more haha... I'll have to do another session with her when she gets older so we can get more art for the house!
