A hospital is preserved, afloat, after the Earth is flooded beneath seven miles of water. Inside, assailed by mysterious forces, doctors and patients are left to remember the world they've lost and to imagine one to come….” (from the blurb for The Children's Hospital, by Chris Adrian)
In this mysterious floating hospital, everything is reversed. The sick kids are in charge! At this station children are invited to collectively reimagine, draw, map and reinvent the objects of the hospital.
Put on a magical doctor's coat, sprinkle some fairy dust on clinical objects and let your inventor streak run wild.
· What would your dream hospital look like?
· What departments are missing?
· How would you reimagine everyday things in the hospital like gloves, stethoscopes and trolleys?
Parents and siblings welcome!
