I had a great visit this weekend and wrote about a blog about it if anyone is interested! arewenearlythereyet.wordpress.com Its a really great day out, and definately somthing I would encourage for a school trip. They seem to cater well for large numbers of children there by providing lots of activities and so on. The only thing is that the museum itself is not a full days outing; perhaps a school trip would be better to just do a morning or afternoon. Then again, if there would be a lot of travelling involved it would mean the kids wouldnt be back late. Alternatively, it is situated in a lovely village, perfect for a walk and picnic, especially now the sun is here! Perhaps a Roald Dahl story time after lunch? Anyway there is still a competition (ends 15th May) to win 3 golden tickets (each ticket is a family one) to the museum, see more details at storyboxbooks.com/roalddalh.php
