Remember lego?
Of course you do! Well you may be interested to hear about Minecraft - a 21st century game which lets you construct virtual buildings working from photos or plans. The “classic” version is free, so why not have a go? You could build your house, or pick a well known local landmark. If you grab a photo off google you don’t need to go outside. Advanced practitioners could even tackle Gloucester cathedral! You can share your finished masterpieces by pinning them onto Know Your Place. Might be just the thing if you’re coping with bored youngsters. Or keep it old school and use lego!
To inspire you, here are some photos of the Heritage Hub “Minecraft style” by Mara and Evan, the talented offspring of Senior Archivist Helen.
