Have fun using recycled plastic and discover how to cut, stick and decorate it to make your own magical jellyfish to take home!
What powers will those tentacles have? How many eyes might it have and what colours will it be?

Suitable for children aged 4-11.
This activity is the ideal accompaniment to Jam Jar Theatre’s ‘How a Jellyfish Saved the World.’ Book your tickets for the show: click here
