W5 Trip

W5 (Who, What, When, Where and Why) is Belfast's interactive discovery museum. Catering for the under 12 crowd, it's all about play and touch and sound. We started off in the START area which is specifically for 3-8s. It was great. There's a musical instrument section- here's Liam making some big noise.
And in heaven- a huge train set.King of the castle...
Driving his own mini- Liam would have loved to stay here all day.
Doing some fake shopping in Tesco...
We went to the next area, Go, where Liam learned a little about physics and mechanics. He got such a kick out of this parachuting fish.
W5 is in the Odyssey on the banks of the Lagan river. It had great views and you could see the construction happening in the Titanic Quarter (where the Titanic was built- they are regenerating the area with museums, office buildings, housing and restaurants).
We had another action packed day and I was totally and completely exhausted at the end, but it was a lovely date with my little man.
