On Saturday and Sunday, visitors to the museum were given a shock. Our NatureSpace hosts had turned into dragons! Luckily, they didn’t look too scary.

Every weekend between 11am-12noon the Discovery Centres have free craft activities for children and families. Last weekend children made their own dragon masks: scary, silly and surprising.

There were some great dragon masks from our visitors; we were inspired!

Next week, get creative with us and decorate your own game player to celebrate the opening of GameMasters.
