Toy Creation - Term 3

Check out these cute little creatures, currently residing in the education office. They're part of the fabulously fun and entertaining programme Toy Creation, offered at Puke Ariki in Term 3.

These wooden push-up toys are part of the hands-on activities for students in Toy Creation.

Toy Creation focuses on the art of making toys. Students will examine how toys were traditionally made, how they work, and explore the concepts of balance, movement and different energies. With lots of traditional wooden toys to touch, play and work with, this programme promises to be as much fun for the teachers as the students!

We're taking bookings for Toy Creation and our other Term 3 programmes now - contact us for more information or book your class online.

Our collection of wooden toys is getting a lot of feedback from our colleagues. What was your favourite childhood toy? Let us know - you may see it included in Toy Creation...
