A brilliant museum for kids run under the aegis of the Victoria and Albert and based around their huge collection of vintage toys, costumes and books. This massive treasure trove is the core of the museum, but what the place is most renowned for is its programme of events and activities for kids.

A visit here is enchanting for any child, with plenty to look at, plus a chance to get creative, learn (in a roundabout way) and run around outside. Your small ones will return happy, and happily exhausted.
