Mathematician Treasure Hunt
To help tell the Tale of Mathematics, there are eight mathematicians from ancient history to modern day hidden around the library. This can just be a fun hunt for toddlers to find faces and shapes, or for older children, a learning opportunity using the fact sheets and short quiz.
There will also be a maths theme for Monday's Bookbug and our other activities later in the week.
