Easter is nearly here, and we’ve got a basket full of cracking activities lined up for a week of fantastic family fun.
Follow the great Big Bunny Hunt to find some cheeky bunnies hiding amongst the cars. Get stuck into a crafty challenge in the Learning Hub, where you can “hatch” and decorate your very own car. Plus, join one of our interactive family tours to uncover some of the eggs-traordinary technology behind the vehicles in our collection.
Need to burn off some chocolate-fuelled energy? Our outdoor play area is ready and waiting. And when it’s time to refuel, the Junction 12 Café has plenty of tasty options to keep everyone going.
Visit over the Easter Weekend, between 3 to 6 April, and you can enjoy a traditional Easter Egg hunt around the cars!
All these activities are included in the price of admission, for a great value day out! Click the button below to book.
Fluffy ears… cotton tails… twitching noses… bunnies have taken over the Museum! A cheeky group of Easter bunnies are hiding around the cars, and we need your help to track them down. Hop on the trail and note down the name of each rabbit you find - there are six to discover!
Once you’ve tracked down all of the bunnies, hop back to the Family Activity Station to check your answers and collect a reward sticker!
Got a taste for crafty creations? Head to the Learning Hub and try your hand at hatching a car.
You’ll start with an egg-shaped base made from card strips, then build up your car’s shape using more card and tape. Once your car has officially “hatched”, it’s time to decorate! Use a range of craft materials to give your car its own unique style.
Once your car is complete, you can take it home to display with pride.
Suitable for 3+ years with guardian supervision.
Join our costumed explainers for a lively, family-friendly tour exploring some of the eggs-traordinary vehicles in the collection.
Along the way you’ll discover fun stories behind the cars and learn about the clever bits of technology that helped get them on the move.
Meet at the Family Activity station at 11.30am to join the tour. There’s no need to book, just turn up!
NOTE: *All activities are included in Museum admission and are suitable for 3+ years with adult supervision unless otherwise stated. To avoid disappointment please check on arrival with the Family Station as places are limited and are subject to availability.
This is your chance to come and see a selection of our vehicles in their natural habitat: on the road!
We’re going to be getting a range of cars from the collection, including our 1971 Lotus Europa, 1985 MG Metro 6R4 Clubman and 1997 Mini Hot Rod, on the move on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout the Easter holidays. Which cars will you see?
Our classic cars like to keep us on our toes, so the car line up may change from time to time.
Our pesky Easter eggs have escaped again! Hop along to hunt for these elusive eggs at the Museum!
Join us for a traditional Easter Egg hunt! Collect your Easter basket from the Family Station and search for the eggs around the Museum. When you have collected six different coloured eggs come back to the Family Station to claim your reward.
Visit the Museum on 9 April to enjoy our latest Access Day, dedicated to creating a welcoming and accessible experience for as many visitors as possible.
Throughout the day we’ll be highlighting our accessible activities and initiatives, including hands-on crafts, tours, SEND resources and sensory bags.
Everyone can enjoy a brilliant day at the Museum, whatever their accessibility needs.
All activities are free with general admission. Learn more about the day here.
