Celebrate this spooky season this October with NUMU by making popsicle spiderwebs and yarn-wrapped mummies!
Create your spider web by weaving yarn through a popsicle frame, and add a pipe cleaner spider to it! Then, make a mummy friend by cutting out a paper doll and wrap it in yarn to give its bindings.
Materials for this activity will be available during regular hours.
Spiderwebs are more than a spider’s home! Different spider species use their webs as tools. Tarantulas use their webs to reinforce their underground burrows. Jumping spiders use their webs as safety lines when hunting to save themselves from falls.
What are mummies? They are the remains of departed life ritualistically prepared through the process of mummification and stored in protected spaces. Numerous cultures view it as an honor.
In this program, Girl Scout Juniors will earn their Art and Design Badge by creating a Tiny Art Show. We will explore NUMU’s galleries looking for art and design, paint a tiny canvas, experiment with color saturation, sculpt tiny pottery from clay, and design our own tiny art show with pedestals and frames. This tiny art and design experience will be big fun!
