Caroline Glenn, Property Manager for the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum said:
"We have two different shows, Pirate and Fairy and Circus, as well as face painting, bouncy castle, balloon modelling and the 'Hoots Owls'! We have owls of several different sizes and varieties, children can handle them, get photographed and learn a bit about them. This is a day for all the family."

Along with the Auld Kirk and Brig o' Doon, the cottage where Burns was born has been combined with the Burns Monument and the new award-winning museum building to form the Robert Burns Birthplace Museum. Generously supported by the Scottish Government and the Heritage Lottery Fund, the museum commemorates the life and works of Robert Burns.
Since opening to the public in December 2010, the museum has welcomed more than half a million visitors and has won a series of accolades including being selected as a finalist for the prestigious Art Fund prize, securing a five star rating from VisitScotland and being named as Horace Broon's 'new favourite place in Scotland'.
