Twits & Tricks October Half Term at the Roald Dahl Museum, Great Missenden

Activity Description

Join us this October half-term for Twits & Tricks!
Description
Upside Down Rooms Clay Workshop
Monday 27 and Tuesday 28 October
Make a 3D clay tile inspired by The Twits and their upturned home.
What does a room look like when the furniture is stuck to the ceiling?!  Join us to create your own room out of clay to find out. Create a flat tile to form the ceiling and then model clay furniture to add to it.  It could be your favourite room, a made-up room or a Roald Dahl one!
£5 per participant in addition to Museum entry.
For age 5 and up. All under 16s must be accompanied by an adult.

Terrific Tricks Trek
Tuesday 28 October
Take a guided tour around the village with our expert guide Michael.
He’ll show you some of the places that inspired the books, including Matilda’s library and Sophie’s orphanage from The BFG. While you wander, he’ll read extracts from the books featuring some fantastic – if slightly naughty – TRICKS.
£5 per participant in addition to Museum entry.
For age 5 and up. All under 16s must be accompanied by an adult.

Disgusterous Clay Dinners
Wednesday 29, Thursday 30 and Friday 31 October
Take a tip from the Twits and make a clay version of some gruesome grub!
Will you hide birds in the pie or worms in the spaghetti? We’ll help you come up with ideas of your own, make it in clay and then we’ll do the cleaning up!
£5 per person in addition to Museum entry.
For age 5 and up. All under 16s must be accompanied by an adult.
