Have you ever wondered how paper is made? If so, come along to this fun and messy workshop and find out, by making your own!

Explore the different types of paper - its properties, uses, and how it has changed over time - while using everyday materials for little hands to produce their very own hand-made paper.

Parents and carers will develop their confidence in supporting their children’s curiosity, observation and exploration, while understanding the science of paper making.

Useful information:

  • Family Fun workshops are designed for primary school children, age 5-10 years old.

  • Children must be accompanied by an adult during the workshop - workshops are not drop-off and the accompanying adult must stay with their child.

  • To avoid disappointment, please do not book tickets for children / siblings under 5, as they will not be able to participate. Additional family members accompanying younger siblings are welcome to enjoy our café and garden during the workshop.

  • The workshops will take place in the Leighton House Learning Centre and might include access to the historic house.

  • Accompanying adults (1x per child) come for free and admission to the historic house is included in the ticket price.

  • Family Fun workshops are popular. If you are no longer able to attend, please let us know.
