Christmas at the museum
Help us find the mischievous Christmas elves hiding among the animals in the 'Wild Wonderful World' exhibition.
In the workshop, you can pet Santa's reindeer, join the antler quiz, and feel the fur and skulls of winter animals like the musk ox, arctic fox, and snow hare. You can also create sustainable Christmas decorations from recycled paper and cut out dinosaur crawling elves.
The baristas in the museum café need your help finding the tiny julosaurs that are hiding in the café eating all the sugar. Find all 10 julosaurs and get a Christmas gingerbread cookie in reward!
Make sure you stop by the shops, where you can find Christmas decorations and gifts for both young and old. We look forward to welcoming you for a wild and wonderful Christmas at the museum.
