Beautiful, Beautiful Bugs – Suitable for Neurodivergent Children

  • Workshop

Come along and create a Beautiful, Beautiful Bug of your very own. There will be big bugs and tiny bugs and flying bugs and fleas. 

Paul Timoney is a bug builder with decades of experience attaching pipe cleaners and sticky eyes to cartons using sticky tape and string. So, relax, create and have fun with lots of recycled materials. 

When the bug-making is done the bugs will become the stars of an interactive story with lots of fun challenges for the bugs to face. 

Children must be accompanied by a parent/guardian for the duration of this workshop.

Suitable for neurodivergent children aged 8-12 years.

Free event. Places are limited; booking is required.

Please note: This is a public event and a photographer will be present for many of the activities on June 7th. Attendees will be asked to register for each event and grant consent for photographs to be taken. If you would prefer not to have you or your child’s photograph taken, please make the photographer aware of this.
