Join us at the museum throughout May to search for our friendly toy dragons hiding in the museum galleries. How many will your young museum explorers find? With ten galleries to explore there's lots to see and do. The dragon hunt runs daily and all entries go into a prize draw for a chance to be the lucky winner of a goody bag of great souvenirs from our shop. There's fiery dragon crafts too. Choose from dragon glider's (£1.50), ceramic dragon decorations (£2.50) and wooden dragon windmills (£3.99). There's free activity sheets and a cosy reading corner to enjoy too. The dragon hunt is free with museum admission. All kids and young people 18 years or younger go free. Museum admission does not apply to join in with crafts. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

Did you know that some rocks float? Which is the only rock that humans can eat? Do you want to find out more? Come along and meet our amazing geologists. Discover more about the rocks and minerals we see and use every day. Challenge the experts by bringing your own rock for identification. There's lots of drop-in fun activities throughout the day, so be sure to take your young geologists along to this free event.
