Early Years Explorers – Activities for children aged two to five years old which include songs, stories, games and craft activities. Sessions are based on familiar preschool play areas, which are enhanced to help children learn about the museum’s collections and exhibitions through play. Sessions are a mixture of free flow and adult led activities which all relate to the Early Years curriculum.

Dick Turpin – Make a cardboard Tricorn hat, listen to the Highway Rat story and do the Dick Turpin trail around the museum.
