Minibeasts

Minibeasts
This display encouraged children to think about insect anatomy and provided lively examples of how various body parts could be recreated using a range of craft materials and natural objects. The aim was to trigger imagination and innovative use of materials to construct minibeast puppets. Several museum specimens of a spider and a beetle were provided, highlighting features of their internal and external anatomy.

Two weeks of puppet-making workshops were held in association with the display. Mimibeast Puppet-making Workshop
