๐ Funzaroo Verdict
Best for families with children aged 2 and up. The hands-on exhibits engage toddlers through teens - two adults visiting without children rated it equally. Staff are knowledgeable and enthusiastic about explaining how things work. Plan 90 minutes minimum; families with older children regularly spend three hours.

โFantastic place for children of all ages. Lots of interactive exhibits for children to play with. Brought my children, 4 and 1, both have enjoyed a lot. Very spacious, has a little picnic area if you plan on bringing your own food, a buggy park, clean toilets, and a cafe. Staff are all very friendly and accommodating. Very affordable price compared with other children's museums. Just outside the multi storey car park. Very convenient location.โ

โGood science museum. Our little one was probably too young to get the most out of it. Coffee was nice from the cafe. Space to eat picnics too. Helpful staff. Would expect to spend about 1h30 maximum here without food.โ

โMy children 1, 5 and 6 loved it! I dare say my teenagers would too. I did! Spent 3 hours here and the experiments are brilliant! Rare that they all work like others I've been to in the past. Great value tickets and all facilities/shop etc. When we got home, my kids asked to go back tomorrow! Parking cheap locally and convenient cut through. Staff amazing. We will 100% be back and with my husband as he missed out!!! Lady doing the eggsperements was a fantastic host, very knowledgeable and happy to answer my daughters questions at the end. Even at closing time, a young man who worked there was happy to show my son how one of the experiments worked before we left. Thank you for a brilliant day out and keeping my active little ones amused in a safe and friendly environment! ๐โ
