Great place to take the kids

My toddler and i have been regulars here for a couple of years now. We absolutley love coming to the story museum!! James and maddy are excellent story tellers when we attend a session in small worlds. Would highly recommend for babies and toddlers!

Excellent place for the little ones, but does require more for ages 8yrs above who are not interested in reading.
