Incredible Inventions Family Trail

About

Follow in the footsteps of Elizabeth Ilive and design your own tool on a trail around the Pleasure Grounds and you too could become an inventor extraordinaire.

Follow a dot to dot to determine if this tool will chop, hammer or dig. Use the crayons provided and decorate your invention your way. Have a feel of the wood, plastic and metal on one of our boards and decide what you might make your invention out of. Decide what noise it might make and give your incredible invention a name.

Complete your journey and earn your own certificate and prize.

£3 per trail, normal admission applies.
