FREE Half Term holiday activities at Blackburn Market
DIY Kamishibai with Alastair Price
Kamishibai is Japanese for ‘paper theatre’, tales told by travelling story tellers, using pictures.
Make up a new story, or add to an old one, see it told on the small stage. Or, for more modern children, why not ‘upload’ a picture onto the grubby screen of our ‘Slightly Sad I Pad’?
Paper, card, pens, glue, scissors and inspiration provided.
The event is a drop in activity between 11am and 3pm on both days.
Children must be supervised by a parent or guardian at all times.
