We love seeing photos from your visits to Moonbeam 🤩

Another exciting visit to The Hullabaloo and this time we went in the 'Moonbeam' room 🌑
The children had lots to explore in this gorgeous set up. They explored inside the rocket 🚀 and loved pressing all the buttons to make the lights change colour 🚀! Another lovely sensory experience ❤️
