Family Fun: Tell Me a Story

Family Fun: Tell Me a Story

22 Aug 2025 - 19 Dec 2025

Join us and students from the University of Plymouth's BA in Early Childhood Studies each Friday for half an hour of storytelling underneath our figureheads. Our sessions are perfect for under 5s and their grown ups and include a fun craft activity too - a great way to end the week with your little ones! You'll also have time to say 'hello' to Mildred the Mammoth afterwards, enjoy even more simple craft activities at our Explore More tables or look around the rest of The Box! See our August/early September timetable below.
