Makes a fab pet - never needs feeding

We’ve probably all dragged the children around a museum that is more hush than happy in atmosphere. Which is why we’re applauding Kids in Museums. They’re not proposing to turn the little darlings into exhibits, but are trying to ensure that the entire family has a great time. Their laudable vision is for all families to be welcomed in Britain’s museums and galleries. Get on their website to find out how they’re making this happen, and you can even sign up to be a judging family for this year’s Guardian Family Friendly Museum Award. In the meantime, get visiting one of Britain’s incredible, and usually free, museums. We’ve got a few ideas here to inspire, and keep visiting our What’s On section to find out about new exhibitions and events as they happen. You could almost say there will be no more scenes at the museum…
