Have you ever watched the movie Night At The Museum and wondered what really stalks the corridors after everybody's gone home? Well now your kids can find out by sleeping inside the Natural History Museum!

Exciting activities include a torch-lit tour of the galleries (watch out for T Rex moving in the dark!), a dinosaur T-shirt-making workshop, and watching an educational science show by one of the museum's scientists. The rest of the night will be spent camping inside one of the atmospheric galleries.

Assuming that your kids survive the night (don't worry, they will), they'll be woken up with a hearty breakfast before the museum opens to the public.

Note: Dino Snores is suitable for children aged between 7 and 11, and there must be a minimum of 5 children and 1 adult in your group. Everybody is required to bring their own sleeping bag, toothbrush, evening snack and clothes to sleep in (they recommend arriving in the same clothes to minimise luggage). Other frequently asked questions can be found on their website.
