My wife and I took Rémy's wooden spoon carving class as an anniversary gift, after she had mentioned wanting to get into wood carving one day. From the moment we arrived, Rémy was incredibly welcomingMy wife and I took Rémy's wooden spoon carving class as an anniversary gift, after she had mentioned wanting to get into wood carving one day. From the moment we arrived, Rémy was incredibly welcoming and created such a relaxing atmosphere, sitting around the fire and enjoying tea while we carved. Rémy was a fantastic teacher, guiding us through each step with patience, encouragement, and a genuine passion for the craft. What really stood out was how he went above and beyond to help my wife get started with wood carving beyond the class, recommending books, tools, and other resources she could use on her journey. The four hours absolutely flew by, and I was amazed at how well our spoons turned out by the end. It was a fun, rewarding, and memorable experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend this class to anyone interested in wood carving. You won't regret it! Thanks again Rémy. + more

Teacher went above and beyond to see we had a great time. Cannot recommend enough if you're thinking of attending. Great value for money - purchased as a birthday gift experience for two and was an amazing gift that we will get to enjoy for many years now. Cosy studio space was warm and comfy (and it was raining and freezing on the day). Genuinely surprised by how well the mosaic lamps turned out. You are making it and thinking 'i'm not sure how good this looks'. Finally, once you've grouted and cleaned and wiped and its dry, you get to see and enjoy the end result of your hard work; an amazing looking lamp that just blows you away. 10/10 class. Give it a go you won't be disapppointed. Thanks for the experience Artistic Vibes, we love our lamps!! + more

Alma is an amazing teacher and guide she helped me make a candle holder and I feel like I have accomplished something dad would be proud of. I would recommend this for anyone wanting to do something different as this is a dying trade. Thankyou alma I had an amazing experience. Gratefully stephen + more

At ClassBento, you’ll find hundreds of creative workshops and artisan-led experiences across Australia, from knife forging and woodworking to wine tasting and gourmet cooking.
If he’s the type who loves to roll up his sleeves, why not try a pottery class, resin art workshop, or leather crafting session? These experiences let him learn something new while creating a keepsake to treasure. Sheena B. summed it up perfectly:
“Absolutely fabulous class! I bought it for a Father's Day present for my dad and me to hang together, doing something he and I both have an interest in (resin). Great teacher, great class.”

For something a little different, surprise him with the chance to learn an instrument from scratch. As Matty shared:
“My wife got me ukulele lessons as a Father's Day gift and it was great. Dan was engaging, incredibly knowledgeable, and at the end of the lesson, I could already play a song (I had never even held a ukulele before the class). I've since purchased a uke and can't wait to play it for my daughter.”

One daughter shared her experience with a Father’s Day activity:
