Escape Game Mysteries
Escape games have become an increasingly popular way to engage children in problem solving activities and they add a different dimension to discovering more about local history.
We have four escape games available to play. Each game can be played as a class, as small groups, or adapted to form part of a family learning day or event. Each game covers a different aspect of the history of the town and uses real historical material as the basis for the story and the activities. Children have the opportunity to explore artifacts and photographs in a fun and interactive way. Useful as a starter to a topic, a summary of a topic, or as a team building activity! Please contact us for further information.
