Event Description

Let your imagination take flight and celebrate New Zealand nature in this fun, hands-on craft session! Kids will design and create their own Aotearoa-inspired bird puppet—think tūī, pīwakawaka, kererū, or even a brand-new species from their imagination. Using feathers and creative materials, children will build their puppet and bring it to life with a little movement and play.
