I love this place- it’s weird and wonderful and on our last visit the curator took such special care to engage my 2 and 4 year old. While I tried to contain them he embraced their desire to write on everything and be royal pains and talked through their favourite pictures. It wasn’t the cold, stuffy, child unfriendly experiences I recall as a kid and that turned me off such places, but rather warm, inclusive and fun! Great work! ❤️
