Modern interpretations - Three-dimensional model

Whitelocke Infant and Nursery School

Year 1 and 2 children (5-7 year olds) looked together at Molenaer's 'Two Boys and a Girl Making Music' and thought about which instruments the characters might play if they were alive today.

Using papier mâché and recycled materials they made the figures, painted their faces and gave them modern hair styles. They also collected clothes that they thought the children might have chosen themselves to wear.
