Summer Holiday Hoard Heroes: Become a Curator
We're having a summer of Iron Age discovery!
Come to the Museum of Chelmsford to learn more about the Great Baddow Hoard and the people who would have handled these Iron Age gold coins. With three sessions to choose from and join in with, from treasure to learning about the Celts, the final weeks will be about how museums display and interpret unique and spectular finds such as these.
Familes can take part in crafts and games associated with the Great Baddow coin hoard and the museum, and learn something new along the way!
Weeks 5 & 6: Become a curator
Selection activities for children to move around at own pace:
• Artefact Kim’s game – 2 trays set up on one table
• Create artefact labels with matching artefacts to the description
• Make an object – air dry clay
• Design a product for the gift shop - badge making
