School holiday fun for kids! Make a colourful felt badge or brooch in shapes inspired by the motifs of Cook Island Tivaevae textiles and traditional quilts from the exhibition 'Interwoven Threads'.
Then learn how to hand-sew a basic blanket stitch around its edges with historical interpreters Kate and Ruth, and have a go at other traditional crafts. Step back in time, explore the historic buildings in the village and the heritage gardens, feed the chooks, play outdoor games. Bring a picnic and make a day of it!
