Playfully focused on museum objects, this EYFS session helps children develop communication and language skills, supporting them to share their ideas and gain creative confidence. Inspired by the ‘Sound it out’ alphabetical display in the Play gallery and led by a museum learning facilitator, children will get the chance to interact with museum handling objects, use their creativity to take part in playful making activities and finish with an interactive reading How to be a Lion by Ed Vere. 

Key curriculum links: Expressive Arts & Design, Communication & Language, Literacy and Understanding the World. Each session can accommodate 1 class (maximum 30 students). 

This session has been developed in collaboration with early years creative arts specialist, Anni McTavish.

We have multiple dates and timeslots to choose from. Each session is 45 min long. You’re also welcome to explore the museum on a self-guided visit before or after your workshop. and you will receive ideas and suggestions to support further learning on gallery.

As part of your booking, we will reserve a 30-minute lunch slot in our Portal Trust Community Room for your group. You will receive an automated booking confirmation. If the information received is incorrect, please contact young@vam.ac.uk.
