Science Museum basement

is there still the interactive stuff for under 5s there? Website suggests there is but on another thread here someone mentioned it wasn't there any more. Has anyone been recently?

It's great.

I was thre recently with a 3YO, 2YO and (then) 6 month old DS and there was plenty to keep them all amused.

it's a bit of a zoo, being honest, but you won't mind your kids running around at a milion miles an hour.

It's pretty 'contained' too - so as safe as it can be, IYSWIM

I was there in November 08

Yes it's still there - been twice in the past couple of months.

There's a water play bit, a building bit with giant lego blocks and pully things, sound things and some other stuff. It's quite good - 12mo DD liked it.

There's a big indoor picnicing area just outside as well as a cafe. There are a few other places to eat in there as well.

Yes! It's fantastic.

It's still there, but the Launch Pad has moved upstairs. It's meant for older children, but there's loads for littlies too. Oh, and on the ground floor near the back there's the Pattern pod which is great for toddlers and pre-schoolers.

Thanks! My challenge tomorrow then is Souh Ken tube station with a 3 year old and 4 week old!
