Brain child

Fun for the whole family, Brainchild celebrates the world of inventions! Pull the lever and witness a Rube Goldberg machine in action! These machines are made from a series of unrelated objects that are joined together to perform a really simple task. Test yourself - can you put it back together for the next person? A giant marble maze also awaits. Guide your ball from top to bottom using tunnels, funnels and other fun bits too. Can you put your lateral thinking hats on to create wild solutions to tricky problems? Explore the tinker trays for inspiration and then invent the solution! Give it a name, tell us what does and put it on the shelf for others to marvel at too. No need to book. Entry is available during regular museum hours.
