Get into the festive spirit as you decorate your very own gingerbread reindeer while aboard this historic tall ship. It's the perfect way to kick off the festive season! Don't miss out on this unique experience and book your spot now!

Bring the magic of Christmas to life as never before and create a magical moment, a perfect activity for families and friends at Christmas time. Little ones will delight in the festive activities with a fund and hands-on creative workshop and journey of discovery. Little elves can decorate their own edible Gingerbread Reindeer to take home and display proudly or leave out for Santa Claus on Christmas Eve.

What's included in each workshop:
- Grandma Wild's edible Gingerbread Reindeer decorating kit
- a visit to the Kathleen & May's Hot Chocolate Milkshake Station
- a festive Treasure Hunt to discover the Gingerbread of the Kathleen & May and seek out the treasures in the cargo hold

Be sure to wrap up warm as it can be as chilly as the North Pole aboard the vessel. Add a sprinkling of creativity and get ready to decorate and taste sweet memories.

This experience is organised by the volunteers of the Kathleen & May and is suitable for ages 12 and under and is a not-for-profit event.

All children must be accompanied by an adult and remain under adult supervision throughout the workshop.
