Norden Farm are getting into the summer vibe this year with a beach themed treasure hunt around the building.
Follow the clues to complete Michael Rosen’s sea-inspired poem Over My Toes and then get creative composing your own poems and pictures.
The treasure hunt is tactile and the clues are suitable for children with visual impairments (with adult assistance). You can also scan a QR code to listen to Michael Rosen reading his poem once you have completed the trail.
We’d love to read your creations and share your experiences of taking part in our treasure hunt. Tag us in your pictures @nordenfarm on Instagram and Twitter / @nordenfarmcentreforthearts on Facebook!
Fri 22 Jul – Thur 25 Aug
Free to take part
Treasure Hunt sheets are available from Box Office or Café Bar.

Singing is a great way to relieve stress and promote well-being.
Meet new people and take some time for you in this new acappella choir for mums, dads, grandparents, carers and their babies!
It is a baby friendly class, created especially so you can bring the baby you care for. Grown ups are in a semi circle (with room for your buggy next to you) and babies can sit, crawl or play on the blanket in front of you.
These uplifting classes are led by conductor/composer (and mum) Marta Radwan. There's no auditions, no singing experience is needed and you don't need to have a 'good voice' - just an openness to have a go! You'll be sure to know the songs and there will even be some which include your little one.
There's also:
* Free on-site parking

Smoking Apples Present
Escaping on a Kindertransport train, one small Czech-Jewish girl embarks on a
mighty adventure.
Crossing between the past and present, Babi travels across Europe; from bon bons in
Germany to the smell of the sea in Margate, she discovers how tiny acts of kindness
can change the course of a person’s life.
Joyful, moving and poignant, Kinder features beautiful table top puppetry and
cinematic shadow play. Babi tries to assemble the parts of her broken identity, to
find peace in her future.
Kinder is a multi-award winning show, from puppetry and visual theatre company
Smoking Apples. Inviting you to take a seat inside an immersive set, the story unfolds
through a series of playful hatches and openings.
