The Living Rainforest Discounts?

Trying_to_be_good

Hi - I need to meet up with my Dad and Step-mum with our brood, between Christmas and New Year, and it looks like The Living Rainforest is well-placed as it's near the M4/A34 and is pretty much indoor.

Does anyone have any hints, tips, discounts, or alternative suggestions, please?

Thanks and Happy Christmas! :rudolf:

Ohhh thats near to where i live! about 10 mins away!

I will see whats in the local paper in regrads to discounts and stuff for you. Its pretty good there. Though make sure you get a route map as can be a little tricky to find if you dont know the area.

I do have to say that I was very disappointed when we took my DD. The most interesting thing there was the butterfly chrysalis cabinet! Also, the butterflies don't tend to fly unless its sunny.

You might do better to meet up at the Corn Exchange in Newbury for the panto (Beauty and the Beast) - my DD went last week and loved it.

Thanks lindsaygalaxy and olgadapolga

It'll be the first time my Dad and Step-mum have met my partner's 4(!) kids, aged between 6 and 10, so I've been trying to find somewhere to explore and chat, rather than watch something like a panto or film. Even doing the panto and then food would put the kids under pressure to be on best behaviour for nice table manners and things, and I want them to be relaxed. Also, something that doesn't cost a fortune (about £30 max given how much is already spent on Christmas).

Any thoughts?
