About
Come along with your little ones for our Toddlers' Takeover Day.
Discover what happens behind the scenes at the museum through a range of games and activities suitable for our little learners.
Each toddler will receive a job checklist of things to do which will take you to stations set up around the museum to explore. These activities will include:
- Going on a gallery patrol
- Making ‘puffballs’ to pack our museum objects safely
- Carefully transporting objects
- Sorting our museum 'store room'
- Sweeping and dusting
- Singing and signing
We would recommend spending 1 hour exploring the different activities at your own pace.
Thanks to the Shears Foundation for supporting our early years programme.
