Museums, art galleries and heritage centres do their best to accommodate children of all ages, and most have an education department that will help you plan for a successful day. If you are unable to get to one of the big centres mentioned below, why not try contacting your local museum or gallery to see what they can offer young children? There is an excellent educational website called the 24-Hour Museum (www.24hourmuseum.org.uk) that should provide you with all the information you need. You can also contact English Heritage (0870 333 1181) and The National Trust (0870 458 4000), both of which offer a range of educational services.
