Activity Packs
Tracker Packs are available at some properties to help you and your family enjoy your visit together. The packs are brimming with games, quizzes and activities that let you discover more about National Trust houses, parks and gardens; their history, and the people who lived there.
All the bags come with instructions to guide you through the activities, and different objects to help you from bug pots, to mop caps.
The packs are free to borrow during your visit, although some places will ask you to leave a deposit, which you will get back when you return the Pack.
National Trust Discovery Programme
Sky is supporting the National Trust's Discovery Programme, helping to create a programme of formal and informal learning opportunities for everyone to enjoy at National Trust properties.
Tracker packs are just one of the ways in which families can share experiences that are fun, which also have a learning element; find out more at www.sky.com/learning
