surfinjim   10 #1 Posted March 27, 2007 Looking to take my active 5 year old and is 18 month old sister away for a couple of days. Anyone been to any of the following and could give advice/recommendations;  Chester Zoo Blue Planet Gulliver's (Warrington) Drayton Manor Edinburgh Zoo  Or any other related sort of place.  Cheers in advance  Jim:thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
medusa   16 #2 Posted March 27, 2007 I'd thoroughly recommend Chester Zoo- niecelet loves it. She also adores The Deep in Hull.  Another more local place that engages little minds rather well is Eureka in Halifax, it's a children's science and discovery centre (kind of like Magna, but on a scale for little ones, and without the terrifyingly dark and loud bits).

tots   10 #3 Posted March 27, 2007 I would have to agree with medusa. Took my daughter to Chester Zoo last year and she absolutely loved it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
surfinjim   10 #4 Posted March 27, 2007 Chester Zoo is looking a good bet then , but need something for a second day.  Suggestions would be Gulliver's at Warrington or Blue Planet as they are both over that way.  Anyone been to either?  Medusa- we went to The Deep last year, and our little boys description of it at the end was "well...... that was pants!" Thought it was very disappointing:(   Jim:thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
