The Festival of Archaeology (by )

Cuddly Science Histories

This weekend on Sat 22nd of July I'll be at Gloucester Cathedrals Festival of Archaeology event with my workshop Awesome Archaeology and Fantastic Fossils. There will be a sand pit with sieves and tools to find things, panning for "gold", a little lab set up to sort out and label your finds, clay impressions, sediment bottles, stratigraphic logs, metal detecting, papier mache fossils, little ruins to piece together and colouring in sheets plus some actual rocks! 🙂

Here is a sneak peak at the sandpit we've made 🙂

And this is all just me! There are lots of other things going on for adults as well as kids 🙂 I'll be in the Cloisters Garden 🙂

My workshop shows the basic methods for finding and sorting specimens/finds as well as going over some basic geological processes!

Oh yeah and of course there will be the Cuddly Science puppets!

Can you tell I'm excited?

This is the undigitised version of one of the colouring sheets as is the picture at the top that I have been working on. Created by making studies of actual fossils and archaeological ruins!
