About Jane Austen's House
If your little ones love story-time, they’ll love exploring Jane Austen’s House in Hampshire, a fantastic museum where the famous author lived and wrote, and is packed full of loads of fun kid-approved activities.
For little explorers, follow the awesome activity trail around the museum, and they'll love dressing up in the old fashioned clothes and pulling their best poses. Try your hand at writing with an old-fashioned quill, why not see who can do the prettiest handwriting?
Head outdoors for some fresh air, you can even borrow a rug and have a yummy family picnic. After lunch, you can even play some traditional garden games, or even a game of hide and seek, ready or not, here I come!
