In this fun, hilarious and imaginative workshop, children will transform ordinary soft toys into extraordinary creatures using creativity, construction skills and a little bit of artistic mischief! Participants will design and build their own unique soft toy creature using a range of toys, fabrics, accessories and embellishments. Add extra limbs, tails, horns, wings, eyes and other surprising features to create a one-of-a-kind character. Once complete, each creature will be mounted onto a display frame, just like a curious specimen in a natural history museum.
