We had a fantastic time exploring Ancient Egyptian life with the help of our visitor, Richard.

Our favourite part of the day was learning about the process of mummification. We worked together to wash the pharaoh’s body before putting his stomach, liver, lungs and intestines into canopic jars to preserve them. We loved wrapping the body with linen bandages and were thrilled to be able to do this to our friends!

We also enjoyed playing a game that the Ancient Egyptians would have played. It involved a lot of strategic thinking.
