These school holidays, join a creative puppetry workshop with Ifat Vanyer and learn how to make finger puppets.

Did you ever meet the Museum night creatures? They are cheeky and sneaky and you'll have to catch them fast or they'll come out when you sleep and make a huge mess! Make your own finger puppet to take for a walk around the Museum or to put on a show at home!
