Science Alive is at the top end of what we will pay for an activity. Prices are available online. Age of the kids is crucial. For the climbing wall kids who are 4 seem to be able to partly do the easy wall and have fun. Younger ones find it much harder to manage. Older kids obviously manage to get to the top!
The gyroscope is a hit with my three year old. There are lots of science based activities for them to join in and experiment with. Again, older kids will 'get' the concepts better. Don't miss the downstairs part, which is a mini golf (pay a little extra) and currnetly illusions area. There is a small area for the younger kids.
It's a place we don't go to a lot - but if you are stuck for ideas, or its raining - it is certainly worth a visit. No food available, but there are a few tables in the under 6's area if you take something to munch on. Oh - an Indian restaurant has just opened up next door - or there are a few snacks available from the cinema. But that's it.
