The tots from Alverbridge Pre-school, in Gosport, were able to explore colours, lines, shapes and textures at Gosport Play Gallery.

Visitors to the gallery, in Walpole Road, can jump on a gel floor to mix colours and create new shapes, take a walk on a tactile pathway, weave on a giant peg loom, feature in their own portrait selfie, and make sculptures from metallic boulders or giant polydrons.
