A Kid’s Life in the Aztec Age with Chae Strathie
Would you eat slugs, tadpoles, frogs or maggots? No?! Then you should be glad you didn’t live in the Aztec age. Step into the past with Chae Strathie as he shows you exactly what life was like for a kid in the Aztec world in this fascinating, and sometimes gross, event full of songs, dancing, drawing, puppets and more!
This event was created especially for school pupils taking part in the Baillie Gifford Schools Gala Day at the 2021 Edinburgh International Book Festival, but it’s also enjoyable for children and families to watch.
