A trip to the Institute of Imagination's 'Imagination Lab'.

On Sunday 18 June I visited the Institute of Imagination's 'Imagination Lab'. It was called 'Lab Live: Metropolis', and was an interactive, family event. The event was designed for children aged 3 – 12 and their parents and carers to create, play and tinker with different materials, shapes, sounds and functions. It aimed to bring cities to life through a host of interactive activities that enable children to explore their imaginations. While there I spoke to Imagination Lab Associate, Karien Stroucken and to Jennifer Coleman, Director of Development, as well as to some of the parents and children who were there.
