About LemonTree Kids
Founded by early childhood educator Sooyoung Park and creative arts professional Andy Forbes, Lemontree Kids offers sensory play and process art experiences designed to support the confidence, creativity, and development of children aged 1–5 years.
Combining Soo's expertise in early childhood education with Andy's experience creating immersive environments, each session provides a safe and engaging space where children can explore, experiment, and discover through play. Your children are encouraged to follow their curiosity, build confidence, and learn at their own pace in a nurturing and inspiring environment.
