Happy Friday, Gemmers!
Earlier this year, we ran an activity called Monsters' Cave here at the Roald Dahl Museum. This was an open-ended, drop-in, collaborative family activity which was entirely self-led and unsupervised. We provided some starting points, materials and atmospheric sounds and then invited participants to build and role play in our monsters' cave.
We learnt a lot from this activity - about our visitors, about working with our Visitor Services team, about our own team and even about the nature of learning! It was very popular (much more than we'd anticipated!) so we do plan to try something similar again in the near future.
We've never tried something like this before but we'd be really interested to hear from other places that have! We'd like to share our reflections and observations with you and hear about your experiences.
Please drop me a line if this is of interest.
Many thanks
Natalie
