Eureka Museum Reviews

Eureka is without doubt the best children's museum we have found, and even better - it's three miles away from our home! Our children absolutely love Eureka and with everything at Eureka designed to inspire children to find out about themselves and the world around them, it is the perfect space for little ones. I went myself a few times through my ...  Read the complete review

Conveniently situated right next to Halifax train station so that those of us without a car don't have to drag the kids miles across town, Eureka is a fabulous place to spend an afternoon. It's designed as a science museum but I've long since stopped pretending that my kids are learning anything there at all: it's a glorious ...  Read the complete review

We recently visited Eureka for my daughter's second birthday and once again found it to be a terrific day out. The entry fee is reasonable and the attractions inside are suitable for all ages and as well as being entertaining, they are educational. The place itself is easy to find as it is well signposted by road and it is situated ...  Read the complete review

I joined Eureka last year whilst pregnant with my 2nd child and it was an absolute life saver! Somewhere for my energetic toddler to run around a learn things at the same time, whilst I could watch and enjoy. She's two now and finds something new to experience every time we go. Her favourite activity is the toddler-height touch-screen computer in ...  Read the complete review

What an amazing day out! I travelled from Leeds to Halifax to visit this magical place. It took me 40 mins and was clearly signposted. There was ample parking in the form of pay and display. For 5 hours it cost us £2.50 which wasn't too bad - though would have been better had it been free! It's also situated just opposite Halifax railway ...  Read the complete review

On a whim, they decide to visit Eureka! the museum for children, since after all, they are just big kids themselves. So, off they venture into ...  Read the complete review

Eureka is situated in Halifax town centre rail station in West Yorkshire. Its easy to get to by car just leave the M62 at Exit 24 and follow the tourist signs to Eureka!. If you are coming by car don't be too shocked that you have to pay to park. As its right by the town centre and the train station people tend to use it other than to go to ...  Read the complete review

Eureka! was the first and I think still is the only museum in Britain, which was designed especially for children, aged between 3 and 12 years old (please correct me if I am wrong). It is a museum where there is no do not touch signs, nothing fragile and children are not patronised, it is a real hands on experience. It can be found in Halifax, ...  Read the complete review

Didn't know where to put this, but its a children's day out so it can go here! I took my little boy to Eureka! in Halifax for his 3rd birthday on 31/07. Eureka! is a children's museum, the exhibits are all things that children come across in their daily lives, how the toilet works, the body, music, cars and engines etc, ...  Read the complete review
