Activities
You little ones love having pretend tea parties with their stuffed animals, fake pastries, and your favorite porcelain tea cups (yikes!). Give your kids a true afternoon tea experience with a prim and proper Tea and Etiquette Class!
The hour and a half Children's Tea & Etiquette Class will explore different types of teas, including child-friendly and delicious teas such as a true tea, rooibus, honeybush, and fruit tea. Little cookies and sweets are provided to pair with the tea, too, so they'll feel like real little ladies and gentlemen! They get to taste five or six different teas as they learn how to steep in traditional vessels, and learn a little about the origin and culture behind their teas. Proper table etiquette is also taught, so perhaps they'll be a little more gentle with your fine tea ware at home! They'll be excited to make you a cup of the 1oz tea they get to choose to take home! Sip, and don't forget to point your pinkies!
The art and craft of making good tea is as complex as wine. Experience Tea has about 100 teas and botanicals right now and more can be ordered as customers request them and as interesting teas are presented by their tea sources. There is a vast spectrum of good quality loose leaf tea to experience!
