World Museum

World Museum

This is a great museum where to take kids. It's split into five floors and each floor has a different display that will appeal to children. There is a bug house full of creepy crawlies which explains their life cycles. There is a small aquarium with both tanks of colourful tropical fish and also tanks with local sealife. Probably the most boring display is one of ancient cultures as it's the least interactive and it simply displays various artefacts. When I was there, there was a great interactive display about animating the Wallace and Gromit films, which we even enjoyed it.

The museum is quite hands on, colourful, and all the exhibits are designed for children. It would be a great place to take kids for the afternoon, especially as entrance to the museum is free. There is also a coffee shop and a shop in the museum.

Not quite being a kid, it probably wasn't all that great though I loved the giant mechanical fly that is in the entrance to the bug display. However, I can easily imagine I would have loved this place as a child.
