Packed with playful resources that encourage STEM learning, our ride-on explorer suitcases will transport your active explorers through our galleries. With guidance by our Learning Team, explorers will roll, crawl and jump to discover shapes, materials and fun in the museum – two galleries at a time. 

Your Mini Museum Explorer Tour will finish in our weekly Mini Museum Engineers play space where your young explorers can explore an open-ended play environment using unique resources with a STEM* based approach that encourage early engineering skills, problem-solving, imagination and, of course, fun!

*Not sure what STEM is? Don’t worry, you don’t really need to know what it is to enjoy and embrace these activities. That’s what are skilled and talented Learning Team are here for. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. This can sound a little scary, especially when you have children aged under 5, but STEM based play is important for children in their early years to develop skills and knowledge that they will use as they enter school and into their adulthood too. Exposure to any play that encourages children to figure things out, how things work and to be creative is STEM, and as you become more familiar with our sessions, you will quickly realise that STEM is all around us, all the time, and you will have been supporting your children with this already, perhaps without even realising it.  

Nursery groups and larger childminder groups of more than 5 children please contact ctm.info@cvlife.co.uk or our Family Learning Coordinator, Anja, anja@cvlife.co.uk for assistance.
