Nice Mice

Stuart Little, the Rescuers, Anantole and Mickey—the literature of childhood is full of mice—clever little creatures who outsmart their much larger enemies.

A fun time for all as you follow the mice trail throughout the Museum. Discover nursery rhyme mice, have you heard about the Country Mouse and a Town Mouse? Beatrix Potter wrote about Mrs. Tittlemouse, Johnny Town Mouse and the Two Bad Mice. Locate the Mouse Hole House and also see if you can talk like a mouse.

As you explore 13 rooms, share the stories of these and other nice mice with your children and grandchildren. Stories, hands-on-activities, craft and more. Tasty treats will be on sale and our Gift Shop will be stocked with unique mouse themed treasures.

On Sunday only explore the outdoor pavilions and visit our working blacksmith. Wander in the garden and enjoy a Sausage Sizzle.
