At Warrawong Library, the Twist And Tangle Animal Craft session gives kids aged eight and up a chance to wrestle with colourful yarn and various craft bits to make their own slightly wonky pet companion to lug home. No need to raid the cupboard, since all the materials are laid out ready for the chaos.
Its a low stakes way for young creators to channel their inner animal architect, where the results might look more like a yarn explosion survived than a showroom fluffy friend, but thats half the fun of untangling the imagination.
