Pretty cool!
Those curious little ones can discover the science of television in MediaWorks, and history lovers can go back in time to the 1930s in the Lyons Country Store.
For those younger playful kids in the family, the Preschool Gallery is designed just for kids under 4 years old, where they can splash on the water tables, dress up like fire fighters and play on the child-sized fire engine!
In addition, most weekends they have exciting demonstrations related to a specific theme of science, math or technology too, so keep an eye out for those!
