Hello, Sorry to hear you weren’t able to book Wonderlab: The Equinor Gallery tickets, it is very popular during half-term. However, lots of our other galleries and exhibitions do have fun, interactive elements. A good place to find some inspiration for a visit is on the ‘family trails’ page on the Science Museum blog. We will also be running free activities throughout the week, including the science show ‘Curious Cures’ and workshop ‘Heartbeat Heroes’ which you might find interesting (details are on our website). We hope this helps to answer your question, please do ask if you have any more - The Science Museum Team
