Join us for an informal play based session for children aged 5 and under and their grown ups. We have toys, small world play, role play and we get messy! Our sessions have a set of loose railway themes such as Station Café, Fix it and Clean it, and Trains Everywhere. As well as the session, little ones can take their grown ups to explore the museum, housed in an historic railway station. The session runs weekly all year round, including during school holidays, when older siblings are welcome. Families are welcome to bring their own snacks or picnics and we have indoor and outdoor picnic areas, as well as selling hot and cold drinks and a range of snacks. Meet new people and come and have fun!
We have free onsite parking, including accessible spaces, a baby change room, potty training seats and step stools to make visiting a bit easier. Breastfeeding is welcome anywhere in the building, and a more private space is available if you wish. We also have a baby food warmer at Reception.
Fridays at 10:00
Newborn to 5 years
Sessions are £2 for adults, under 5s are free. Free to annual family pass holders.
