Craft Classes in Saudi Arabia
Making things with their hands, not just pictures
A drawing either looks right or it does not. A made object also has to stand up, hold together and survive being carried to school, which is a far more honest teacher. Craft gives a child a result they can hold, and a failure whose cause they can see immediately.

Making things with their hands, not just pictures
Painting and drawing train the eye on a flat surface. Craft trains the hands in three dimensions — scoring before folding, letting glue set, judging where a structure will give. Children who find drawing frustrating often thrive here, because the feedback is physical and instant rather than a matter of opinion.
Saudi Arabia has the largest Indian community in the Gulf by number, concentrated in Riyadh, Jeddah and the Eastern Province around Dammam and Al Khobar. There are no public temples and religious practice is private, so for most of these families the home is the only place a child will hear a shloka chanted properly — and many parents are not confident doing it themselves.
Real technique — scoring, folding, joining and finishing
Three-dimensional thinking, and structures that genuinely hold
Indian craft forms taught alongside general making
Something finished and holdable at the end of nearly every class
Batch timings for Saudi Arabia
Live classes on AST (UTC+3), scheduled around your week rather than ours.
Saudi Arabia is two and a half hours behind India, with no daylight saving. Weekday 5:00 to 7:30 PM local is 7:30 to 10:00 PM in India. Weekend batches run on Friday and Saturday, the Saudi weekend, and we keep the calendar around Ramadan school timings, which shift the whole household’s day.
What your child walks away able to do
Confident use of scissors, adhesive, scoring and folding
The ability to plan a three-dimensional object before starting it
A body of finished pieces the child made unaided

Arts & Painting runs in person at our arts studio in Jayanagar, Bengaluru, and, like every class of ours, at our HSR Layout centre, 243, 16th Main Road, Sector 3, HSR Layout, Bengaluru 560102. Both use the same mentors and the same curriculum as the online batches. Families outside Bengaluru take the online batches, which cover the identical curriculum.
Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us about your child
Call or WhatsApp us and say where your child is starting from. For craft classes that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to what they can already do.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with your child for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class of ours for them.
3. Pick a slot that survives the school week
We place your child in a batch built for AST (UTC+3). Saudi Arabia is two and a half hours behind India, with no daylight saving.
“The storytelling program transformed my shy son. Last month he confidently narrated a Panchatantra tale at his school assembly. The mentors are patient, warm and world-class.”
