WHAT'S ON    

Activities for LittleHumans (and adults!)

15th September to 27th October

_Jet Pack Space Jam: Unleash your inner astronaut and personalise your jetpack at our design station with special edition Petit Pli stickers, crayons and pens. Then let your imagination take you up to the moon.

_Origami: create your own origami Space Shuttle! Deployable satellites and origami inspired the first Petit Pli garments, and we pay homage to these tiny research stations by combining the two.

_Height Chart: plot your height on our unique chart, finding out how you measure up against other astronauts.
