Once you’ve painted your collection, display them at home or use them for a fun treasure hunt game - find the kwobidok (beautiful) gumnuts!

Have a colourful and creative time!

Tips:

  • For a fun way to display your gumnuts at home, try filling up a glass jar or vase with your creations – they look really moorditj (solid)!
