Science museums
Apr. 21st, 2006 08:46 pmI took Michael to the London Science Museum last week. He wasn't too keen - I think he's been spoilt by the Glasgow Science Museum, which has more hands-on things (and was less crowded when we went). Still, there were occasional things he liked, such as a game where you play energy minister of an imaginary country, deciding which power stations to build.
We also enjoyed the IMAX cinema, where we saw a 3D Africa Safari film. I was surprised that the 3D effect worked for me. I have a squint, which means that I tend to use one eye at a time. The 3D picture books you can by are literally impossible for me to do. But with the polarised glasses, I was able to see the 3D effects in the IMAX most of the time. Michael had fun trying to touch the things that seemed to be floating just in front of us!
