Maggie's Art Club

Welcome to the supporting resources for our nature-based art activities.

Maggie, our Wild Art volunteer and local artist has created a series of easy-to-follow videos to help you deliver these fun self-led activities with your class.

Making fossils – Year 3/KS2

If you have hired one of our amazing fossil-making kits, this is the video you need. Watch how Maggie makes an ammonite and 3D dinosaur poo fossil. It’s easier than you think!

These fossil kits can be used before or after our rocks and soils school trip to continue your learning. The kits are great for learning about moulds and casts as well as working through the process of fossil formation. 

How to paint your fossil with watercolours – video coming soon!
