Hei Tiki Museum Trip

On the 26th of June,We went to the Museum. . . We'll the Tea House near the Museum.The Museum is still being fixed.Moving on,at the Museum we learned about the Maori culture,more so the Hei Tiki.

Firstly we hopped on the Tardis from Doctor Who and travelled back in time where people first wore the Hei Tiki. And we progressed to how it's being used for advertising and logos. 

And we even got to touch a real TIKI! Of course we had to wear gloves and my hands got really sweaty and gross... but it was still great!It was really fascinating to actually hold a real Tiki. 

Lastly,We got to make our own Tikis,Firstly we picked out buttons for the eyes.I chose Purple and Teal buttons to sew on for the eyes.Next we picked our felts I picked this dark navy blue like the depths of the ocean,White felt to balance out the darkness,Bright green for the mouth and hands to add a pop of colour,And a mango yellow for the mouth.Using the rest of the white a made the limbs. :)
