We The Curious

We got a gift voucher from friends to this amazing place. We live in area many years but have never heard of it. Now I am sure my son will ask me to return there again and again. We suggest to get tickets for Planetarium show, well worth a money. Something to keep in mind - with a day ticket you can return through out the day several times. My son didn't want to leave unless we tried out and seen everything there We The Curious made us curious.

We came here to see Mesmerica 360 in the Planetarium. The show was ok, I felt they could have done a bit more with it. But the kids enjoyed it. The area is a buzz of activity and there are plenty of things to do. We didn't wait but had a time slot of 6.45 pm for when the show started.

Very interesting and interactive. Aimed at kids but I enjoyed it as an adult too so I think its a great family experience. Lots of different activities. Shame some experiences are paid for in addition to the ticket price but still plenty included to keep you busy for several hours. Cute little gift shop too.

I went to We The Curious in Bristol with my nephew and honestly it ended up being one of those days where both the kid and the adult end up enjoying it just as much as each other. The place has this mix of science, colour and hands on stuff that keeps you busy without even realising how fast the time goes. We both had our own favourite bits. For me, I really liked how interactive everything is. Nothing just sits there gathering dust, you actually get to press things, spin things and figure stuff out. My nephew absolutely loved the colour octagon wheel, and I have to admit I did too. It is so bright and weirdly satisfying to play around with. We must have stood there for ages just messing with it. Another thing I really liked was how friendly the staff were. They actually talk to you like they enjoy being there. My nephew loved the little experiments section where you can try out different gadgets and watch stuff light up or move. It kept him completely focused which is rare for him. The planetarium though, that is the best bit of the whole place. You go in thinking it is just a dome with stars, but it is amazing and creative and feels like you get pulled into the show. Barney the host was brilliant as well. Really funny, really clear and you can tell he enjoys what he does. He made the whole thing feel alive, like you are actually floating around space instead of sitting in a room in Bristol. I also liked how much variety there is. Every corner has something different going on. My nephew enjoyed the section with shadows and lights, and we both liked the big mechanical displays you can play with. By the end of it we were both tired but still felt like we could have stayed another hour. Overall We The Curious is one of those places that gets science right. It is colourful, creative and fun without feeling like school. If you go with kids they will be buzzing, but even as an adult you end up enjoying it more than you expect.
