Come and make some intergalactic beings from scrap materials. What planet will yours be from? This Alien Puppets workshop is an inspired by the Space Shanty exhibition at MShed.
The theme of this workshop is alien puppets. You and your child will have the opportunity to make pop up puppets, sock puppets and alien inspired creations.
The hosts will provide an abundance of scrap materials for you to explore and give you any guidance and support you need to bring your ideas to life! Make as many different creations as you want and you can take them all home.
The theme of these sessions are a starting point for your child’s creativity. The Playroom is full of resources and is a space to explore ideas. Your child may choose to do something different which is fine by us!
