Christmas activities

Holiday crafts and Santa's reindeer

Every day in December, you can meet and pet one of Santa’s reindeer in the Natural History Workshop at the museum. In the workshop, you can also get creative by making sustainable decorations from recycled paper.

Christmas elves at the museum

Oh, for gnome's sake! The mischievous Christmas elves have escaped the collections and are hiding around the museum. Pick up an elf hunt checklist in the exhibition's first room, so you can tick off each cheeky elf as you uncover their hiding spots.
