About

The session will be most suited to participants who are learning at an age of 5 or under. 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.

We also offer Relaxed Mouse Tales sessions with early Museum entry on Tuesdays during the holidays from 9-10.20am. These sessions are designed for families who need a quieter environment. Free, booking required.
