点评:We discovered by accident - and all (adults and kids- 9 and 12) had a super time. I was surprised one reviewer said their 14 year old said it felt 'young' for them - I'm 42, and learnt loads and really enjoyed it! It Is presented in a fun way. The main gallery wasn't huge - but was big enough and had a lot to do. We spent about 2 hours there. Highlights were the electrolysis hand crank, iron fillings (& magnets) sculpture, high powered microscopes, and huge table top screens where you could play games to make glass/elements (a bit like science Minecraft) - but there was more! It was relatively compact, but there was lots to do - and it was really well explained. A couple of things needed repair (particularly the gemstone 'guess who' game), and the 'wet chemistry' had run out of some of the liquid ingredients - but I think this is probably fairly standard for 'hands on' museums - just the nature of being able to play with things.
We also went to the fireworks science show (believe there are new shows every 6 weeks or so) - which was both informative and fun - lots of coloured fire and explosions!
We enjoyed the cafe - lots of choices, and fast service. The staff were friendly - perfect for a quick pit stop whilst exploring.
翻译:我们偶然发现了这里,所有人(成人和 9 岁和 12 岁的孩子)都玩得很开心。我很惊讶,一位评论者说他们 14 岁的孩子说这让他们感觉很“年轻”——我 42 岁了,学到了很多东西,真的很喜欢!它以一种有趣的方式呈现。主画廊不是很大——但足够大,有很多事情可以做。我们在那里呆了大约 2 个小时。亮点是电解手摇曲柄、铁填充物(和磁铁)雕塑、高倍显微镜和巨大的桌面屏幕,你可以在那里玩游戏来制作玻璃/元素(有点像科学 Minecraft)——但还有更多!它相对紧凑,但有很多事情要做——而且解释得非常好。有几件东西需要修理(特别是宝石“猜猜我是谁”游戏),“湿化学”已经用完了一些液体成分 - 但我认为这对于“动手”博物馆来说可能是相当标准的 - 只是能够玩东西的本质。
我们还去了烟花科学表演(相信每 6 周左右就会有新的表演) - 既有教育意义又很有趣 - 有很多彩色的火焰和爆炸!
我们很喜欢咖啡馆 - 有很多选择,服务很快。工作人员很友好 - 非常适合在探索期间快速休息。
