Museum für Kommunikation.

A great interactive museum for kids to find out different ways of communication.

It shows all sorts of different ways people have communicated with each other, from smoke signals, to mail post, to the internet, and everything in between. There are lots of interactive activities for the kids to press buttons, and touch all sorts of equipment. 

Cameron spent the afternoon at Bradley's house, so we took Alexander here. We had to show Alexander how to use this telephone, he had no idea how you would use it. Am I getting old? Alexander using the controls for a crane. This robot was programmed to find the ball and roll towards the ball. Alexander spent ages rolling the ball around and watching the robot search for it and chase it. When the robot found the ball, it would let out "baby" like squeals of delight. It was very cute to watch! There was a great installation of a postal stage coach, that had been totally taken apart, and hung from the ceiling to show how it all comes together, far too hard to explain, and the photo I took doesn't do it justice.
