Activities for young visitors
We run a programme of free family activities during school holidays. These are based on a different theme for each holiday period, so there are lots of different things to do throughout the year. Previous sessions have focused on:
-
Pirates
-
The Iron Age
-
Bugs and insects
-
Halloween
Activities can include ‘make and take’, art work, trails and competitions.
Look out for our ticketed events for families such as storytelling and Museum Music and Mime.
