Family activities for the summer holidays

No need to worry about entertaining your children during the school holidays! The Museum's Education team has got you covered with their special themed family activities on every Tuesday in Bucks school holidays. Our fun-filled activities, games, and crafts can be enjoyed without having to pay any extra, as they are included in our admission price.

The theme for this week is Victorians. Activities run from 11am to 3.30am.

There will be themed storytelling, you can make a paper Jack in a Box toy, help make butter in our farmyard and experience life in a Victorian school. Sessions in the Victorian schoolroom are recommended for those aged 4 and over, they will be timed and are on a first come first served basis.

For those interested in working with clay, the Dacorum and Chiltern Potters Guild will be hosting clay creations workshops on the theme of the Museum’s Victorian buildings and iconic Victorian objects like stamps and post-boxes.

If you'd like to attend multiple Terrific Tuesdays, and Museum events then you can purchase an Annual Pass which costs £35 for adults, £25 for children and family pass prices start from £60.
