The Little Feet teddies want to celebrate all the wonderful Museum objects connected to light.

With a collection of over eight million objects there are plenty to choose from!

Take part with other under fives in trying out the Indonesian art of shadow puppetry, exploring the Greek goddesses and gods of light, marvelling at the reflections of light in water through Japanese illustration and experiencing the sound and smells of bonfires in European paintings.

Create a window decoration to take home and celebrate the light of winter with a disco finale.
