The workshop takes place in the Museum’s Education Area, which is prepared for the children before their arrival. Children first join our storyteller who, using props and involving the children throughout, will read a fun and engaging story from the Museum’s Junior Library. Our aim is that all stories are linked in some way to printing, books, museums or libraries.
Once the storytelling session is complete, children will don a mini apron and using crayons and ink stampers decorate their very own printer’s hat. Children are free to move around the Education Area to choose the items with which to decorate their hat. Once complete children become qualified mini printers!
The workshop is 45 minutes in duration and can accommodate up to 24 children. There must be a minimum of 10 children in the group and we require at least 1 adult per 4 children visiting. The cost is €2 per child, with accompanying adults free. You can make a booking enquiry here or by emailing admin@nationalprintmuseum.ie.
