More than Just
Child's Play
>>Children's Museum — Enjoy
hours of child's play at this kidfriendly fun zone, where the little
ones can play with their food at
Lasagna Lookout, go googly-eyed
at Illusion Tunnel, and get wet
at the Splash Lab, a giant water
table with built-in bubble makers.
They can also explore the inside of
a train engine before hopping in
the conductor's seat, whip up an
original at craft centre Pop M'Art,
or construct entire cityscapes at the
Tumble Zone — before knocking
them down, of course!
