Kettle's Yard invites families with children who have additional sensory needs to join us for our Studio Sunday Relaxed Session. These quieter art making workshops aim to provide a comfortable creative experience at Kettle’s Yard.
In our Clore Learning Studio, participants can make art inspired by artworks and ideas at Kettle’s Yard, supported by artists and volunteers. No prior art experience is required.
Activities are designed for children ages 3–11 and we encourage parents and carers to create alongside their child.
The Whipple Museum is full of scientific models of different kinds. Use objects from our handling collection to explore a moving model of the solar system, find out how a chimpanzee can help you with your times tables and create your own molecular models (accurate or otherwise)! Use our anatomical models to find out where your bones and organs are and how some of them work.

Clare, our dinosaur who lives by the Museum steps, has travelled in time through our galleries, laying an egg in each of the display cases that she visited. Can you find them all and answer Clare's questions to win a prize?

What do a giraffe, a frog, a shark and a robin have in common? They all have a skeleton. More than that, they all have a backbone: they're vertebrates. Visit the Museum of Zoology for a day of free hands-on activities inspired by skeletons. Explore our temporary exhibition 'Growing a Backbone: The Rise of the Vertebrates'. Follow our skeleton trail to take a closer look at the amazing animals on display. Handle real bones and see what they're made of. Play with puzzles and stories, and find out how skeletons grow. PLUS make your very own 'Book of Spines'
