For our youngest visitors, we now have brand-new Friday Fledglings activity packs available from The MERL gift shop! 🐣

Discover a new pack each week, created by the Fledglings team and introducing children to the natural world through activities, stories, and crafts.

Please note: although we're overjoyed to be welcoming visitors back to the galleries, and it's terrific seeing families enjoying the garden once again, we're not quite ready at the moment to relaunch Friday Fledglings in its pre COVID-19 format.

Although most of the session would be outdoors, we want to be confident that we're keeping our visitors, staff and volunteers as safe as we can. And we don't want to run a bookable group that would be so small that many people could be excluded!

We hope that in these new packs, you'll be able to find a range of Fledglings fun that can be enjoyed whilst at the museum, exploring the garden, and when you get back home.

We'll be sure to keep everyone posted with any updates!

also the cool thing about these Friday Fledglings packs is that you can buy them and complete them on literally any day of the week

apart from on Mondays when we are, you know, closed
