Wacky Wednesdays (Under 5s)

Play and learn with your pre-schoolers!

Join us as we explore one of our fun weekly themes through interactive storytelling, activities, singing and crafts.

Wacky Wednesday is a shared experience perfect for pre-school children and their carers and includes opportunities to take a close look at different themes from the museum which they can relate to their own lives.

Upcoming themes:

Wed 8 July – Mining holidays

Wed 9 September – What is Coal?

Wed 16 September – What is a miner?

Wed 23 September – What do miners wear?

Wed 30 September – Animals Underground

Wacky Wednesday is exclusively for children under 5 years only. Booking is essential to guarantee your child’s place. Adults do not need to pre-book their place. Please note all children must be accompanied by a maximum of two adults.

After Wacky Wednesday you can find the rabbit in Parkinson’s Yard, tunnel in the Technology Gallery or visit our Victorian Gallery. Watch out for the cute canaries by the entrance of the Underground Tour, and say hello to the ponies in our Pony Discovery Centre.
