Then, let the participants choose 5 of these yummy unusual objects and challenge them to make a creature. The results were amazing! See some pictures below and in my Gallery.
A Mouse
A Goldfish
An Owl?
A Millipede
If you’d like to try, either go and pick your own from the sidewalk, parks, gardens, or come and visit me at the museum again the 6th and 7th of June (2-5pm).
If you’d like to help (and have fun in the process), please pick a small bag of “tree stuff” as in the picture above and I’ll gladly come and pick it up anywhere in Singapore. Or you can bring it to me and I’ll treat you to a cup of tea/coffee/Milo and a quick workshop on how to make a mouse, an owl… or a strange creature from this wonderful material that grows on trees! Please leave me a message below…

oooh they look great!
Arent they beautiful! I would have loved to be there! Do you use glue to make the seeds hold?
Ha, Sophie, thanks, it was an amazing workshop! Yes, it’s UHU glue and a lot of patience. Not the stick glue, the liquid one. Not usually recommended for kids. But it works well, the parents were helping and the museum is well ventilated…
