A visit to the Museum of Childhood during their Spring Break is a great way to keep the kids entertained this April. Children aged 3 to 8 can join in the Bunny Bounce Trail from 2nd to 4th April, and if they help the Easter Bunny to find his friends around the Museum they'll be in with a chance of winning a giant chocolate egg (winners announced at 4pm). Throughout the two weeks of the Spring Break, from Monday 5th April to Sunday 18th April there's some time travel to be done. Just like in Back to the Future, the Time Machine makes travel to the past possible. The journey in time includes games, storytelling, arts and crafts using toys from the 1920s and 1960s as their inspiration. You can find out how Winnie-the-Pooh was created, test your yo-yo skills or make a Charlie Chaplin puppet - these are just some of the themed workshops on offer.About V & A Museum of Childhood
The Museum of Childhood houses the UK's largest collection of toys including dolls, dolls' houses, puppets, games, and toys. Collections showcase all aspects of childhood, from games throughout the ages to a historical look at cots, prams and feeding bottles (including a 19th century ceramic bottle).
