About
The session will be most suited to participants who are learning at an age of 5 or under. Older children are welcome. There will be an interactive story, and songs followed by some simple exploratory play experiences which relate to the story theme. There will also be an opportunity to feel a museum object.
Please note: This session has a small capacity; if your circumstances change and you can no longer attend, please get in touch with the learning team at learning@greatnorthmuseum.org.uk so that we can offer the space to our waiting list.
