A StoryWalk® is:

  • a way for people to get together and enjoy stories in the outdoors with family and friends
  • a book to read on storyboards placed along a trail
  • fun and engaging as you read and walk at the same time.

Follow the trail of storyboards around the park, reading the story together and gathering surprises – suitable for children ages 2-8.

This event is created by Geography Victoria and supported by the City of Melbourne, with the generous support of Slimline Warehouse and Readings Bookshop.

Gather with friends and family in the park for a picnic, visit the museum, play on the fabulous playground … and while you are there, pick up a map and clue sheet at our registration desk near the children’s playground (enter via Rathdowne Street, north of the Melbourne Museum)

How long will it take? Approx 45 mins  (It depends how long you want to spend in the playground.)

Follow the map and discover a fun Christmas story!
