When ActivityPacks.com.au founder Lenka Taylor launched her business around a Sand Art activity pack, she chose the activity because it was colourful, fun and easy for children of all ages to create something they could be proud of. The range expanded with plaster art, fundraising packs and party packs that can entertain up to 12 children.
Last year when a friend mentioned to Lenka that her Sand Art activities would be perfect for families celebrating Diwali, she was amazed to learn about the beauty of the festival and the similarities between Rangoli and the Sand Art activity.

She received this great feedback “During the Festival of Lights – Diwali we have a “rangoli” tradition. This year I decided to use Sand Art. It was a MASSIVE hit with the children and they were so proud to take home their masterpiece! I had 12 children at the party of varying ages. Lenka from Activity Packs helped me to pick age appropriate designs and organised for me to have the party pack. It had everything I needed to organise the activity: easy to access containers, picks for peeling the adhesive film, sleeves for the completed picture and so much more. Everything I could want had been thought of and included in the pack. I highly recommend the service and products at Activity Packs. I will be using them again.”
All the craft activities available at ActivityPacks.com.au are designed with a “no mess no fuss” approach. They are easy to set up, allow children to explore their creativity independently and are quick to clean up afterwards, with large kits including disposable table clothes!
To celebrate Diwali this year Lenka is offering 25% off all Sand Art kits until October 31. That means you can entertain the children from as little as $6 per creation! Head to www.ActivityPacks.com.au and enter the coupon 4909 while in the shopping cart. Plus FREE DELIVERY Australia Wide!
Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.
We operate independently.
Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.
When you support The Indian Sun, you support:
• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers
We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.
