Winter break fun for the kids at Hamilton Children’s Museum and Fieldcote museum & park

Kids of all ages can enjoy winter break fun this week at the Hamilton Children’s Museum and Fieldcote Memorial Park and Museum.

The children’s museum, which is housed in a 19th century farmhouse on Main Street at the top end of Gage Park, is giving kids a chance to be an archeologist at Dig It! Archaeology 101 from January 2 -7.

Visitors will assume the role of archeologist using brushes to uncover artifacts and screens to sift found objects and interpret the items they have discovered.

Fieldcote, located on Sulphur Springs Road in Ancaster, is hosting indoor and outdoor fun for the whole family January 2-6.

The museum and park will tap into the competitive spirit with winter family games with an outdoor Scavenger Hunt and some indoor table-top board games.

Crafts for all ages, in fact, with a winter fun theme.
