When you think of a museum, I bet you don’t think of a place where children run around. But the Science Museum is different. It’s noisy!
You can get to the Science Museum by going on the London Underground from Waterloo on the Jubilee line to Westminster. Then take the Circle or the District line to South Kensington. When you walk out, take a look around you, and you should see it.
What to bring: at least two bottles of a drink for the kids and £10 to spend in the cafes. Entrance is free!
The most interesting and exciting part of coming here is to go to the kids’ area, the Launch Pad on the 3rd floor. At busy times, you may have to wait in line, but staff (工作人员) will provide science toys for you and the kids to play with. It is great fun in there. And if you love science, it should indulge (满足) you as you will learn about science in a fun way. There are also simulators (模拟装置) on the 3rd floor, so think of Floor 3 as a “fun floor”.
If you want to learn about the museum, then go to the ground floor. They have some things which will interest you.
Overall, it’s a fun experience for the kids and you may enjoy it too. It’s also free to get in!
