Preschool / Early Childhood Groups
We accept bookings for early childhood organisations but you need to understand that children aged five and under are not really our target market. It is very important that you read this page so you know what to expect.
We do have a few attractions suitable for young children, including:
- Toys, jigsaw puzzles and colouring activities.
- Dressing up in an astronaut suit.
- Looking at displays such as Lego, models, etc.
- Treasure hunt activity: "Find the Jetsons".
However, most of our displays and activities are aimed at older children and adults, typically requiring reading and other skills. Whereas most customers stay for around 1½ - 2 hours, pre-schoolers usually last about ¾ hour.
You can see our current prices here. Unfortunately we can't offer discounts for pre-schoolers because they cost us more than any other age group.
Please consider carefully whether a visit to the Space Centre is acceptable value for money for your group.
Note: Infants aged 0-2 are free but we ask that you try not to bring too many of this age. Toddlers need to be very closely supervised at all times, and it doesn't work well if we have a lot of them.
If you and all your children's caregivers are comfortable with this situation then we're happy to welcome you.
To make a booking for 20 people or less, use the general booking form. For more than 20 people, use the group booking form.
If you have any questions, please contact us.
