| Just to give you an idea of the range of exhibitions we have here at the museum, I'm going to tell you about the exhibitions and activities we have for visitors of different ages. First of all, for the little ones we have a fascinating area called Shapes and Patterns. where they can play with objects and images and see how they form different patterns. It's really colorful and exciting. Kids love it. Then, at the other end of the scale we have more complex exhibitions that appeal more to our older visitors. There's one about the history of aviation. how planes developed over the years. Older visitors may even be able to remember some of the earlier planes on display. Another exhibition that adults might particularly enjoy is the energy exhibition. It shows the historical development of different forms of energy in Britain and how it has powered industry over the centuries. And, of course, we mustn't forget the teenagers. There are lots of exhibitions to interest them, but my favourite one is the one where visitors can find out more about how physics works. it’s a fun exhibition with plenty of hands-on activities, that explore how light and heat and chemicals work. I still go there myself now and then. It's brilliant. |
