We love craft!

Hannah and Lauren completed their last exam for Semester 1, loaded the car up and headed straight to the
Princes Highway
to lend a hand during the last days of the Autumn by the Sea holiday program. Both lovely young ladies are studying Marine Biology at Deakin University, Warrnambool Campus. Together they assisted a group of enthusiastic kids in making Wiggly Sea Critters.


This craft is awesome! We love it, kids love it! Cardboard fish, crabs, squid & cuttle animals were decorated with paint (very messy), paper, feathers... etc. The awesome thing about this craft is that the animals move! Once dried you pull the string like a wind up toy and the animals swim!! The designs varied between the group members but all looked amazing eventually. Overall it was a great activity to volunteer for.

Wiggly Sea Critters
These little beauties are a lot of fun to make & play with!
 
*Insider tip: create your own amazing marine creature race by lining them up in a row and pulling the string.

For future craft excitement keep an eye out for the Winter by the Sea holiday program www.dpi.vic.gov.au/mdc
