Families have long enjoyed our designated interactive space for children. Located within its own large gallery inside the Museum, children will be able to play in a space which takes them on a journey from palisades to pill boxes as well as a number of hands-on activities including puzzles and a ‘Q’ store full of authentic Army uniforms from different periods that children can dress up in.

Other things for children to do while at the Museum include our Mystery Object Hunt and Taonga Trail, and colouring-in and activity sheets at our café The Mess Tent.
