Baby and Toddler Takeover Day
Get stuck into a free day of family activities at Thackray!
We are hosting a Baby and Toddler Takeover Day to celebrate 10 years of Baby Week Leeds with our friends at Child Friendly Leeds. That’s right, we want under-5s and their parents, carers, or guardians to enjoy exclusive access to the museum.
For one day only, there will be a baby first aid course, access to our Sparks soft play area, Story and Rhyme Time sessions, and more.
We know this can be thirsty work, so we are offering 25% off a hot drink and a cake from our locally-sourced café.
Limited availability. Pre-booking recommended.
