St Francis Class – Hartlebury Museum Toy Workshop

Published by LForty on November 13, 2020November 13, 2020

This week we welcomed Su in from Hartlebury Museum. We were so excited as she brought old fashioned toys with her from the museum. We listened to Su tell us about the toys and we decided what they were made from.

We categorised the toys based on whether they were made from plastic, wood, fabric or metal.

After that, we were able to play with an old fashioned toy. We played with a wooden ball and cup game, wooden yoyos, spinning tops and lots more. We found the toys quite challenging to use as they required lots of skill but we persisted and we succeeded.

We would all love to say a huge thank you to Su for visiting us. The workshop was extremely informative and particularly hands on; a fantastic opportunity in these current times. Thank you, Su!
