How long should I plan to stay?
We suggest planning for a 45-60 minute visit, but you’re very welcome to stay longer to enjoy all the activities or pop in briefly if you're short on time.
We ask visitors to book in advance. This allows us to keep numbers comfortable inside Babs and around the activity tables. We know plans can change, so we’ll always aim to be as flexible as possible on the day where capacity allows.
