We've got together with our friends at Cambridge University's Engineering Department to run some amazing engineering activities for families. Working as a team you'll design, build and test bridges and rockets:

can your rocket fly as high as our chimney?
can you build a strong bridge from only paper and masking tape?

All children need to be accompanied by at least one adult who is happy to join in with the activities - sitting at the side and watching is definitely not allowed!

Suitable for children aged 7 and above. Tickets cost £1.50 for children, £2.00 for concessions and £3.50 for adults and include admission to the whole museum.

Numbers are limited so advanced booking is advised: please email info@museumoftechnology.com

Rocket blast-off!
Think you can go higher?
Next sessions on Wed 17, 24, 31 Aug 10am-12.30pmhttps://t.co/EtezD6LXk6 pic.twitter.com/kp1VOdv1HB
