Molineux Museum visit

[lone_wolf]

Hi all,

i was hoping to take my 2 kids up to the molineux museum whilst the wife is away tomorrow, as i’ve never been and wanted a day out that didn’t depend on the weather. I’m a bit confused on the opening times though looking at the wolves site. It looks like it’s only open fri-sat. Is that accurate? I would chance the ticket office to check but i always get nothing but a ‘call back later’ voicemail message.

Also has anyone been up with wee ones before? Mine are 2 & 4. Granted the 2 year old may not be massively interested in the historic stuff but she can get stuck into the interactive bits!?

cheers all!

not 100% sure of time but think you my be out of luck think it's generally Fri , Sat and Sun and only open Mon-Thur if it's a matchday (open earlier at weekends if matchday)

There are a few things in the interactive zone for kids which is all in the one corner of the museum be even then probably aimed at a bit older than 2
in the rest of the museum there are a few bits here and there aimed at kids and some interactive screens, videos etc

Time wise you could spend a couple of hours in there to take a good look at everything (maybe a bit long for kids), but if not busy (and it usually isn't that busy, particularly non match days)
you could have a reasonable look round everything in an hour

Saturdays 11am – 4pm

thanks for the reply! I suspected as much but was hoping the wolves site had just not been updated or something. Saves me travelling from Birmingham to be disappointed. Looks like it’s a trip to wacky warehouse today then!

Why would you take your kids to the houses of Parliament?

So they add to the level of intelligence that's usually displayed in the House?

Still never been round the museum, one of those things that never occurs to me to do. Heard it’s quite good.

I was lucky enough to take a look around the museum a year or so ago on a trip to the UK. PumpKing kindly arranged for my visit and I spent a happy two + hours in the museum taking photos. If you'd like to take a look, they start at the following link :
