Making stuff from rubbish!

Hi!

James and I are having a lovely day. Right now, James is taking time out to spend time in his Playmobil world and I thought I would make a coffee, sit down and blog.

This morning, James had his hair cut and I had my brows tidied - a fair deal I thought.

Then, we took a trip to the Nottingham Contemporary, which has really given me a boost. When we got home, we decided to raid the dry recyclable bin for stuff we can use to get creative and make new stuff - like robots, trees and animals!

Here are some pictures from our fun day and the books we could use to guide us (I'm afraid I'm big on imagination, lacking in skill or talent).


£12.99 5+


Stuff made by a variety of children (& their parents)



£9.99 5+

And for the littler ones...£4.99


More inspiration can be found at the Nottingham Contmporary Online Gallery:

For the rest of this week, you can still drop into the Contemporary to take part in more free family activities. Draw, explore, make, play and let their imaginations run wild.
