Sensory Trail at Poole Museum
Poole Museum has installed a new ‘sensory trail’. The trail allows young children to learn about history by interacting with exhibits using sight, touch, smell and hearing. Those that go on the trail are given a lunchbox full of things to smell and feel, and a booklet telling them which exhibits they relate to. A series of interactive listening posts have also been installed throughout the museum.
Age guidance 3 - 5 years.
