The tea is designed for girls eight years old and older along with their mothers and grandmothers, but everyone is welcome. An adult must accompany children under eight.
There is time for sharing, learning and we will make a craft together. Everyone wins a prize just for coming and there is a grand prize given at the end of the tea.
