点评:Today I visited Bradford Industrial Museum with three children - all boys, ages 3, 3 and 6. I wanted to see The Red Ball, an art installation there for just one day as part of the City of Culture. And I was fairly sure the children would find it interesting too. And they did! It was brilliant. The staff with the ball were great. They encouraged the children to fully experience it by running into it, trying to push it, bouncing off it etc. They absolutely loved it!
But also, the whole museum experience was wonderful! There are so many hands-on things for the children to do, their interest is maintained throughout. The resources provided for the children - arts and crafts, dressing up, home corner, trains, printing, etc were all brilliant.
The café was great, and it was so lovely to be able to buy a drink and snack/treat for all of us and for it not to cost a fortune! Really appreciated this.
But mostly, I wanted to say how amazing the staff were. The man at the desk when we arrived was very welcoming, and the lady there also took the time to explain what there was to see. But all the other staff around the museum (volunteers?) were so friendly and made the day special for the children. Especially the man in the printing area.
We had such a good time, and the fact that all of this is free is incredible. Although I did make a donation to cover what I felt was a fair entrance fee for us all 🙂
Highly recommend a visit, whatever age you are!
翻译:今天我带着三个孩子参观了布拉德福德工业博物馆——他们都是男孩,分别是3岁、3岁和6岁。我想去看看“红球”,这是文化之城活动的一部分,在那里只展出一天。我确信孩子们也会觉得很有趣。结果他们真的这么做了!真是太棒了。负责红球的工作人员非常棒。他们鼓励孩子们充分体验红球,比如撞球、推球、在球上弹跳等等。孩子们非常喜欢!
而且,整个博物馆的体验也非常棒!有很多可以亲自动手的项目可以供孩子们体验,他们的兴趣始终被激发。博物馆为孩子们提供的资源——艺术和手工、装扮、家居角、火车、印刷等等——都非常棒。
咖啡馆很棒,而且我们每个人都可以买点饮料和零食/小点心,而且价格也不贵,真是太好了!真的很感激。
但最重要的是,我想说这里的工作人员太棒了。我们到达时,服务台的男士非常热情,女士也耐心地讲解了里面有哪些景点。博物馆里的其他工作人员(志愿者?)也都非常友好,让孩子们度过了一个特别的一天。尤其是印刷区的那位男士。
我们玩得很开心,而且所有活动都是免费的,这真是太棒了。不过,我还是捐了点钱,觉得对我们所有人来说都挺合理的入场费 🙂
强烈推荐大家去参观,无论你多大年纪!
