Current exhibit: KidSpace

Bright colours. Fun exhibits. Big toys. That's KidSpace, an area for 3 to 6 year-olds to play with movement and materials. They can build a two-story wooden house. Roll a ball through a path you made in the Gravitram. Make a dam and float boats down a stream at the Water Table. Crawl into the giant kaleidoscope to see hundreds of images of your self. Take a spin in our flying saucer. And don't forget to play with the giant building blocks and the loop-de-loop.
