Our creative club is back!
Aimed at children aged 8-14 and designed for children with special educational needs and disabilities who usually find visiting museums overwhelming due to conditions that affect their sensory processing and/or have a developmental disability.
Come for a twilight ramble through the Botanic Garden and learn about the fascinating world of bats. There will be a chance to use our bat detectors, find out about what bats eat, where they live and have your questions answered.
Suitable for families with children aged 8+
Please note that this event is weather dependent and may need to be cancelled if it is raining.
Booking essential. Bookings open 1 week before event.
Wednesday 14 August, 11am to 3pm
Explore the Wisbech and Fenland Museum's latest exhibition, Beasts: Epic creatures real and imagined, and discover some of the strange and curious creatures that lurk within the Museum's eclectic collections.
With free crafts and activities, as well as the opportunity to meet Inferno, the smoke-breathing dragon, this is a day not to be missed.
Admission to the Museum will be free during this event.
21 August, 12-3.30pm: Explore 17th century Huntingdon
During the third week of August you can discover what Huntingdon was like when Oliver Cromwell was a boy! Retrace his steps with a new free children’s trail available between Saturday 19 and Sunday 25 August, and drop into Huntingdon Town Hall on Wednesday 21 August to create your own map of 17th century Huntingdon to take home.
14 August, 12-3.30pm: Create your own Charter
Want to know how to craft your own charter? Discover the histories of charters, illumination and types of colour that was used!
Drop into Huntingdon Town Hall to discover how write with a quill, the art of illumination (which includes designing your own coat of arms!), and craft your own important document to take home with you!
How steady are your nerves? Find out by building a game, including doing some soldering. You'll create a metal loop that you then have to guide around a wire maze without the two touching. If you they touch, a buzzer sounds and you have to start all over again!
No electronics experience is required although you will need a steady hand to assemble the components and use the tools.
This workshop is aimed at children aged 9 years and older.
