Workshop
A place to live
Let’s learn all about different animals, their habitats and the things they need to survive.

Would you like to live in a web and have flies for lunch like a spider?
A Place to Live is an educational workshop that introduces children to the idea that different animals live in different ‘homes’, and need different things to survive (food, water, shelter). Designed as a presenter-led storytelling session, children will interact with the central character, Beena the bee, that is searching for the right home and will be tasked with creating a habitat that meets their new friend’s needs.
