Make a Wooden Peg Doll

Make a Wooden Peg Doll

Wooden dolly peg dolls are one of the most popular traditional homemade toys, going back to Victorian times in Britain. They are still loved by many and made in the same way today.

Come to Mandurah Museum to participate in a traditional craft activity.

This activity will involve the skills of cutting, wrapping, glueing and drawing as you use fabric, wool and other materials to create your doll.

The possibilities are endless, use your imagination to make your favourite superhero, book, movie or real-life character.

When you’ve finished the activity, you can take your doll home to play with.

This activity is suitable for children aged 5-12, however it involves fine motor skills so younger children will require assistance from an adult to make their doll.

Dates:

2, 3 & 4 July 2024

9, 10 & 11 July 2024

Time: 10am-11am

Bookings are essential. An adult must accompany children, however adults do not require a ticket to attend.
