Ships and Giggles

A summer of games, adventure and silliness down at the Dockyards. This summer at Bristol Dockyards - home of SS Great Britain - we're bringing the stories of one of the world's most extraordinary ships to life through games, challenges and a whole lot of laughs. From the dockside to the dining room, take part in interactive challenges inspired by the SS Great Britain's global voyages. Here's a taste of what's in store: Jar Fishing: Child passengers would dangle jars into the sea to catch fish - without even being able to see what they'd caught! Now it's your turn. Jump Rope: Swing into action with our giant jump rope - a favourite from the streets of New York City. How long can you keep going? Good Shout: Head down to the engine room and listen out for your orders - called out through the speaking trumpets just like the real crew. How many commands can you get right? Who Made All the Pies?: Race to make three fruit pies in the ship's galley before anyone else! Flip cards to build your desserts, based on a real menu from 1863.
