Recording nature helps us to look after it! Discover which animals have called Wakefield home throughout history. Find out how scientists and naturalists keep track of nature today.

Make a nature notebook and decorate it with an animal friend. Take it home to write or sketch the animals that live near you. Be inspired by Andy Singleton's paper sculptures in the A World of Good gallery.

Free, drop-in activity. Stay for as little or as long as you like.

This activity is part of our programming linked to the A World of Good gallery at Wakefield Museum.
