Tips

Lovely little museum, free to get in! I enjoyed completing the quiz as I walked round (I'm a big kid! But there are ones available for different ages) and my toddler enjoyed the interactive exhibits, like the ' pretend shop' area and pull-out drawers with things to look at in them. Very clean and pleasant. Good little gift shop too, and easy access for all.

Hi yesterday I went to Hertford museum and It was truly brilliant great activities of the kids and as you go round you can grab a clipboard for you and your kids to answer questions and put what you like about the museum even though that is for children I had a go too I really recommend it there is lots of things for the adults to look at too also I did not mention that in one of the upstairs room there is a little role play shop you can put your children in while you look around it is very old fashioned and is aimed to show kids what it was like in the old times.when you go downstairs there is a small shop reasonably priced and great things I know this is not very old fashioned but at the end of the day I brought my kids a rubber toy that when you squeeze it it sticks it tongue out I quite enjoyed the toy more than my ten year old daughter did but I will be going out with her tomo and buy her anything..... In reason! Me and my kids defo enjoyed the day and will be coming back asap!!!!!
