A HALF-term craft activity day at Eastleigh Museum proved a huge hit with youngsters who flocked to make peacock fans, windmills and hanging birds.

The free event - which also featured colouring and artwork - was inspired by the museum's current exhibition of photographs by Harshard Mistry entitled Other Lives, Distant Lands.

The photographs range from pictures of the mountains of Pakistan and deserts of North Africa to the jungles of India.
