Kids Hands On Experience

Plants Alive

This plant cell needs YOUR help. Step inside and adjust the water, sugar and light that gets to it, and you can save its life. Check its vital statistics - sounds and colours will change to show you how the cell is doing - and keep it in the pink.

How does your garden grow

Seed Pod time machine

Germinate your ideas about the woodland inside this seedpod that fell to the forest floor. Climb in and you find a magical time machine, that will make you feel like a bird flying over a wood, will condense years into minutes to show a tree growing from a seed, and will whizz you through the four seasons of the year in the forest.

Hear like a Bat

Step into the wings. Pull on the ears, and send tiny sounds across the exhibition hall, that only batty old you can hear. Suitable for any sized child, from three foot high, to six foot high.

Hear like a bat

Playground

Are they houses? Are they beehives? Are they rockets? Children can just climb inside these woven buildings, and let their imagination run riot. And grown ups who've run out of energy can relax with a cup of tea just feet away, on the terrace of the restaurant.

Greenhouse

 

It really is a blast. Go into the glass greenhouse and digitally re-master your own global warming. Mind your skirts and your hair-dos though; cold or warm air will be blasted at you depending on your actions.
