Keep the kids busy
AS families struggle to make ends
meet, the Daily Echo today brings
you its latest selection of summertime
holiday suggestions to keep
your children entertained for free.
Our Beat The Crunch campaign is designed to
help families saving the pennies have a funfilled
few weeks without breaking the bank.
Tomorrow children will have a chance to
make their own scary masks during a free
workshop at Westbury Manor Museum in
Fareham.
Inspired by the museum's tooth and claw
exhibition, the museum's education officer
Emma Hart will encourage children to make
their own giant predator masks from a variety
of materials. The free arts
and craft workshop, called
Ferocious Faces, from
10am until 3pm, is free
and open to children
aged four upwards.
Children under 12
must be accompanied
during the dropin
activity.
A trip to Westbury
Manor Museum in West
Street can also prove a big
hit any day of the week with free admission
from Monday to Friday from 10am until 5pm
and on Saturdays from 10am until 4pm. Visitors
can find out about Fareham's past as a major
supplier of strawberries, chimney pots and
bricks.
Meanwhile children can step back in time at
Eastleigh Museum in the High Street where
admission is free Tuesday to Friday from 10am
until 5pm and on Saturdays from 10am to 4pm.
Young visitors can learn about the town's past
and a number of free workshops are being held
during the summer holidays.
They include a stained glass window workshop
this Thursday, at 10am, where youngsters
will have the chance to make their own pretend
stained glass panel and take it home to hang in
a window. Materials and entry are free and last
admission is 2.30pm.
For more information call Westbury Manor
Museum or Eastleigh Museum on 0845 603 5635.
