Free Virtual Tours of the Roald Dahl Museum

Exterior of the Roald Dahl Museum and Storytelling Centre

This seems like a great idea to share with our school colleagues--or build a

homeschool program around it!

Believe it or not, this year marks the 50th Anniversary of Roald Dahl's beloved

CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY. This September, Penguin is celebrating with

a week long Skype Tour of the Roald Dahl Museum and Story Centre!

On the Skype tour:

•       The Roald Dahl Museum's Education Manager will lead your group around

the Museum virtually

•       Kids will get a look inside Roald Dahl's real Writing Hut, featuring

his famous chair and the unusual objects he kept on his desk

•       Experience the world of Dahl and the inspiration behind his wonderful

stories

•       Participate in a Q&A with the Education Manager

Skype opportunities are available the week of Monday, September 29 - Friday,

October 3, 2014 between 9:30am EST and 3:00pm EST/8:30am CST and 2:00pm

CST/7:30am MST and 1:00pm MST/6:30am PST and 12:00pm PST.
