Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 19 Oct, 06:01 · Archive

The Tank Museum is running family activities from October 24 to November 1, including a Magical Mouse Witch Trail and building competition.

The Tank Museum is running a half-term programme of family-friendly activities from October 24 to November 1. The programme includes interactive trails, creative activities, and challenges designed for families exploring the museum together.

Highlights include a new Magical Mouse Witch Trail, where visitors help the tank mascot, Mouse Witch, find tank parts around the museum's exhibitions to complete her enchantment. Themed colouring activities are also available alongside a COBI Brick Building Competition, where children will be challenged to create their own tank designs for the chance to win a COBI brick model. On October 27, visitors can paint a piece of pottery to take home, guided by Sophie's Ceramics.

Nicola Burgess, Education & Visitor Engagement Manager, said: 'October Half Term is a great opportunity for families to explore the Museum together.' She added that visitors can create their own tank mascot and learn how soldiers protected their food from rats in the trenches. All tickets include free returns for a year, and annual passes and memberships are valid for the event.
