Heart and Seek

Kids go free from 14 February – 22 February with a paying visitor for general admission. Use the code KIDSGOFREE when purchasing your tickets.

Make this February half term extra special with our Valentine-themed family activities. Enjoy a fun, hands-on trail and creative colouring activities designed to delight curious kids and grown-ups alike.

Valen-Time Tunnel Trail

Can you spot the heart-warming treasures hidden in our Time Tunnel? Young explorers can hunt through the collection to find love-themed objects spanning the Victorian era to the 2000s – and even into our Thunderbirds & Space: 1999 exhibition.

Heart & Seek Colouring Activity

Once the trail is complete, it’s time to get creative. Design your own chocolate box and invent a brand of your own, then play flavour detective as you discover perfect chocolate pairings in this sweet activity.

While children are busy exploring and creating, adults can enjoy a nostalgic journey through over 200 years of social change, culture, and everyday life. Don’t forget to visit the Thunderbirds & Space: 1999 exhibition before it closes at the end of February.
