Children’s Nature Workshop: Make a Lapwing

Make a Lapwing with Sarah Wise from the Fairyland Trust

Inspire a love of nature with this art nature workshop!

Lapwings are beautiful birds that love farmland and wet areas. In fact, over winter, as many as 15 thousand feed and roost on the Holkham National Nature Reserve!

On this workshop your child will learn about this elegant bird and will make their very own lapwing to take home with them under the guidance of Sarah Wise from the Fairyland Trust.

The workshop is for children aged 3 and up, and each bird will be made using sustainable materials. An adult must accompany their child during this 45 minute art workshop.

Find out more about what’s on this February half term at Holkham.
