Title: Natural History Museum
Post by: Georgie on June 16, 2009, 22:28:20
Hello

Has anyone been to visit this exhibition and if so how would you rate it for pre-school children?

BTW I don't need a two-year old to warrant a visit but thought she might like it?

Depend on the child...We took our two to Syon houses butterfly farm where you can walk amongst them, and my oldest who was about 5 at the time totally freaked out at the large butterflies flying around and landing on her! :-\

Good point, Deb.  I'm not concerned about the butterflies - she's fine with mini beasties - I was more interested to know whether the jungle climbs and play areas are suitable for her age group.  I can't find anything on the site - may have to ring them.

That place looks great for adults, flighty, but not as exciting as the 'jungle' sounds for little ones.   :)

Georgie it's only just opened and I've not had any first-hand reports about it yet. If and when I do I'll let you know what they think of it.  xx
