A LITTLE SCIENCE, A LOT OF CURIOSITY

Get curious. Get creative. Give plastic another life.

Children will explore everyday materials and discover what can happen when we reuse them.

Sensory games

Explore plastic through touch and playful discovery.

Stories

Learn how familiar materials can have another chapter.

Fun experiments

Ask questions, observe and experiment together.

Reuse & create

Turn reused materials into a colourful, liveable world.

FROM WASTE TO WONDER

What could we make from materials we already have?

In this workshop, children use games, stories and experiments to discover plastic in a new way. Together, they will give reused materials a new purpose and build a colourful world.
