For all parents and their peepi
Plan a special trip to Te Whare Taonga on the last Friday of the month to be part of our 'Mums & Bubs Morning'. This is aimed at all parents and care-givers of babies and pre-school aged children.
For our July event, you and your peepi (baby) will be part of storytime inspired by the visual art exhibition Robyn Kahukiwa: Tohunga Mahi Toi.
Schedule
- 30th May: First hour of Exscite free, 10am to 11am
- 27th June: Matariki fun, 10am to 12pm
- 25th July: Robyn Kahukiwa storytime, 10am to 12pm
Baby change and feeding
Toilets with parenting-friendly facilities (fold-down change table, rubbish bin) are located in the Museum's main foyer, the corridor leading to Exscite, and the toilets within Exscite.
You are welcome to breastfeed your child anywhere in the Museum, and please let our kaimahi know if you'd like to use a space with more privacy for this purpose.
Please note that, other than breastfeeding, no food or drink can be consumed within the Museum in order to keep our taonga safe.

Our hero image for this event is the oil painting 'Mother and Child' by Hamilton-born artist, Meredith Marsone.
