Make your own windmill and weave together a sailboat!
This year for Summer of Play we are holding a series of craft workshops, in this session you will make two different crafts, a seaside windmill and a sailboat! You'll construct all of your windmill pieces so it spins around, and glue together your sailboat, before weaving ribbon through the sails. You'll take your creations home!
All materials provided. Ages 5+ due to fiddly pieces.
