The five stars relate to when We The Curious is open. It houses a hands-on exploratory with the sort of exhibits that I would love to have seen as a child. Unfortunately there was a fire earlier in year which means it is currently shut for repair. Apparently the fire was caused by gulls causing an electrical fire on the solar panels on the roof! While the exploratory is closed the staff are running free sessions in Millennium Square for children to build the biggest, tallest and most beautiful structures.
We had the best time at Chain Reaction, which was in Millennium Square and run by We The Curious, the Museum which is sadly closed due to a recent fire. Sign up is definitely required on the board outside the tent, so we registered then went somewhere else and came back for our session. About 45 minutes of building and a grand performance with everyone at the end - the atmosphere was brilliant. I thought the staff were utterly ace, every single one was child-oriented, super enthusiastic, and chatty with the grown ups so you felt like they really loved teaching everyone about science. We’d definitely look out for more school holiday events and can’t wait for the main museum to be back open.
Always love a Science Museum. Ideal for a family day out, or a perfect date if you are both big, curious children at heart I had far too much fun with the giant bubbles. Phrases big questions in fun and easy to understand ways and blends science with art and philosophy seamlessly. Intended to take more photos, but got swept up into the magic. Recommend.
I've never been to a science museum, I was amazed, and thought it was INCREDIBLE. What was there was amazing and took my breathe away... and definitely needs to be seen by all. Highly recommended, the staff was brilliant and helpful. I came out of our visit here more intelligent
We first went when the science museum was named @bristol and several times since then as "we the curious". What a fantastic place to take anyone. Kids yes but you could do on a date here it is so much fun and so much to learn. You can certainly spend a day or two hanging out in this fascinating place. We loved the Observatories and the 3d Planetarium. The bubbles in “Our World”, of course, playing with magnets in the “Curiosity Zone”, sand, water! Absolutely everything fun for kids including an old fashioned brick area for building your castle. We thought the animation section “Animate It” was terrific, and we explored every puzzle in “Your Amazing Brain”. I don’t think we would get fed up with this if we tried. The food there is excellent, a little pricey, though, and straightforward. You can go out and come back, so there are a plethora of places so close that you can choose from if you prefer something more exotic than a coronation chicken jacket potato. The fact that they support local charities is a bonus.
We the Curious previously @Bristol, is an excellent place to bring young and old kids. There is plenty to do and plenty of space. There are two floors filled with lots of different scientific and animating stands to keep you and the kids occupied for hours. Worth a day ticket or a full year pass. There is a cafe, picnic area with vending machines, toilets upstairs and downstairs. There are 2 lifts and stairs. They have a planetarium with regular shows throughout the day. Worth a visit if you want to expand your mind or a child's mind,lota of fun exploring and learning to be done here!
A brilliant place to visit with the family with more interactive exhibits than the London Science Museum. I think you would need more than a day to do everything here with the majority of science stuff on the ground floor and more of a focus on animation on the second floor. There is also a planetarium which is worth booking for on arrival. Get there early and be a little structured to get the most of the exhibits. Millennium car park is a two minute walk away.
Fun for all the family! Lots to do and see for active minds. Upstairs has so much to offer for the more creative, hands on children so make sure you leave enough time.
My son and I decided to go away for a couple of days. I remember this place when it first opened so thought I would take him. I made the right choice he loved it. We had so much fun looking at animations and bubbles and lots of other amazing things. We did pay extra for the 3d solar system show and I will highly suggest to do it if you can it took my breath away and my son's too. He has talked about it non stop. Lots to do if suggest get there in the morning as it does get busy.
Wow, lots to do in here, you won't be able to fit it all in one day. Although most of the exhibits are aimed at older children, as it's all hands on, our two year old had a great time. They have a cafe and a indoor picnic area if you want to bring your own food, but you can also leave and return if you want to eat out. Definitely worth taking in a show at the planetarium as well.
