Let your little Vikings unleash their creativity with our hands-on Kids Crafting activities! From making their own Viking beard to creating brooches and pottery, there’s plenty to keep them busy.
These activities are free with admission to Barley Hall, so bring along your little smeds (that’s Norse for craftsmen or artists) and watch them show off their skills!
