Inspired by a visit to http://www.mylearning.org/ where you can create your very own Super Bug in a Museum's Top secret laboratory, I set off down the park with a collection of buggish recycled materials, enough selotape to temporarily restrain Godzilla and my very own hovertastic, xray visioned rainbow dragonfly and world champion high jumping, multi tasking feeder of a species called Roy. Who could possibly out wit my mini beasts in the survival stakes? Teegan, Finley, Mia, Hannah, Ryan, Clay and Zoe perhaps?! Thank you too to all the children and parents who took part who aren't in the photos and whose minibeasts were equally as inspiring and a tribute to the combined spontaneous power of recycled materials and the imagination and especially to the children who helped me set up and to the young man who suggested I bring along leaflets next time so he could hand them out around the park. You Rock!

Flutterbys in Abbey Park
With a box of freshly picked recycled materials from the Mighty Worcester Resource Exchange and the council's blessing I set up a 'Come and Make a Flutterby' art session in Evesham's Abbey Park bandstand. With its smart new coat of paint, the bandstand no longer offered us the distraction of a telephone directory to rival that of any telephone box in Brighton but did provide us with shelter and shade to make stuff. I had a great afternoon and hope you did too. Showing off their fabulous flutterbys from top to bottom are Odette, Joshua, Ethan and Emily.
