Discover is an amazing place for children and families from 0 - 11 years old to play and create stories. Focused on storytelling, children can let their imaginations run wild in the indoor exhibition or venture outside into the Story Garden. Follow the Story Trail from the Lollipopter through to the Sparkly River, over the Creaky Bridge and through the caves. Dress up, make puppets and hold your own show, create your own stories with the help of the story-builders.
