Under 5s Family Hub
The friendly Fridays Family Hub is a welcoming space for young children and their carers to explore the museum through play, stories, and creativity.
Our Family Hub Days run 11am to 2pm and anyone with young children is welcome to join us.
Each session is designed to spark curiosity, encourage imagination, and help families connect with our collections in hands on, meaningful ways. On this page, you’ll find everything you need to plan your visit.
We have space to run around in the gardens or have a look at our museum. We will have an activity on for special days.
For all days outside, we ask that people bring sun cream and all the important things as our gardens can get hot in the summer.
