Wacky Wednesday
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 24 April – Colliery Trains
Wed 1 May – Pit Nurses
Wed 8 May – Coal Queen
Wed 15 May – Pit Wood
Wed 22 May – Allotments
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 explore our Little Diggers soft play area, find the rabbit in Parkinson’s Yard, tunnel in the Technology Gallery or visit our Victorian Gallery. Watch out for the cute canaries, the ponies in our new discovery centre and if you’re ready for a ‘pitstop’ there’s Caphouse Café with our Mini Miners Lunch bags or visit the adventure play area and bring a picnic.
