March – Palace builders
Help Stuart the unicorn discover how you build a palace as he explores the shapes, colours and textures used to make the Palace.

Stuart the unicorn has been to the Royal Garden Party and is very excited to tell everyone about it. Join us as Stuart tells stories, sings songs and has his own Garden Party.

September – Amazing Autumn
With Autumn on its way we are celebrating the changing of the seasons as we explore nature’s wonder. Meet some fluffy friends who make the Palace garden their home and discover the stories they have to tell and the rhymes they can teach us.

December – Snowy stories
It is Stuart the Unicorn’s favourite time of year: Christmas! Explore some snowy pictures and discover how some Kings and Queens spent this special time of year a long time ago.

These sessions are best suited to children aged two to four but children under two are welcome. Children should be accompanied by parents or carers.
