- A box of tools from MakeDo for creative cardboard construction! (for you to return when you leave)*
* supplies are limited, and we encourage families to work together while building your creations.
Things you may want to bring with you:
- Coloured textas or paint pens (no paint please)
- Decorations or props
- Money for food or coffee from That Food Truck and The Groovin Beans.
Visit Nature Players at the Construction Zone and help us build a cardboard tunnel. We’ll have some special tools from MakeDo to help us! Collect a cardboard box and join the construction crew.
Our friends from Educated by Nature and the Eco Faeries will be joining us for flag making and a special group cardboard craft project.
