with children when it’s cold outside, but

of workshops on the Cutty Sark (for full
details check rmg.co.uk). Meanwhile the
National Maritime Museum Cornwall has a
Viking Christmas season running from
12-3.30pm daily from 19 December to 3
January. Here, children (ideal for under-10s
says the museum) and adults can learn
more about Nordic Christmas customs
and make a Viking yule goat. It’s free with
a ticket to the museum.National Maritime Museum, Cornwall,
