Writing for the Museum
Beaminster Museum are creating a Covid 19 time capsule. The aim is to collect residents experiences of lockdown which will then be placed into a capsule in the museum. The capsule will be opened in 100 years time - you'll be 110!
Your Challenge is to write to your descendants explaining what it was like for you during lockdown. You might talk about...
- not being able to go to school.
-having to stay at home.
- creating rainbow pictures
- clapping in the street at 8:00 on a Thursday.
- not being able to get toilet roll!
Here is an example from someone living in Beaminster in World War 2

What you include is up to you! I would love to receive any which I will pass on to the museum.
