Family Visitors

Family Visitors

Tiverton Museum is the perfect place to head for a family day out.

You’ll find play stations and interactive elements, including the chance to stand on the footplate of the Tivvy Bumper steam engine, around the galleries.

Dress to Impress with our dressing up stations around the museum; the whole family can take part.

We have trails and quizzes available based on our collections to follow round the museum.

Explorer Backpacks (suitable for children of all ages) on a range of themes are available to borrow free of charge from the front desk. The backpacks include trails, toys and books to help our younger visitors explore the museum.

Check the events page to see upcoming holiday activities, handling sessions and special events.

The museum is fully accessible to prams and pushchairs; there is a lift to access the first floor. Alternatively, you are welcome to park prams and pushchairs next to the Front Desk.
