Children's Activities and Education

Historical Promotions and Event Management prides itself on combining education with historical activities and workshops for children. We work with schools through our sister company Heritage Education Service, providing hands on archaeological and historical class based sessions throughout the various Key Stages of History within the National Curriculum. This ethos also extends to our working practices throughout our sister companies.

Our extensive range of period demonstrations, displays, entertainment, shows and workshops are ideal for museums, historic properties, schools, private home tuition, children’s clubs and societies, children’s festivals, parties and special event days.

Our children’s activities can be tailored to suit your particular requirements and budget available. We can provide a series of activities and workshops, with make and keep/take home or have-a-go opportunities on various historical themes. These events can be small in size or large-scale projects, as desired spanning a few hours or an entire weekend. We can cater for any number of children and also provide entertainment for adults at the same time.

Children and those with learning disabilities, in particular, are also able to learn from the experience by handling objects, learning about chronology, talking to re-enactors and costumed interpreters and learning new words from their experience. The history activities, workshops, displays and period demonstrations cover a wide range of historical periods covered by the National Curriculum for History, but there are also many other cross-curricular experiences that children also learn, that helps them to develop an understanding of the past.

‘To be ignorant of the past is to remain a child’
Paraphrased from an observation by Cicero
