Children & Families

Ladies and gentlemen, a warm welcome to our BRLSI family page! I am Professor Ichthyosaurus, your companion and guide on all things BRLSI!

The Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institution, or BRLSI for short is a place where Science, Literature, and Art come together to help people smile and learn cool stuff. Grown-ups who love books, science, and art can come here to watch lectures and there are fun activities for children.

The really exciting part is, BRLSI has an amazing collection of things from around the world. Treasures from far-off lands that have been collected by enthusiasts, and these are shown in our exhibitions. Read on to find out more!

Games & Fun at BRLSI!

BRLSI has a number of activities available for kids during opening hours. We are planning organised activities during school holidays and have a range of activities relating to our permanent exhibition that parents can use to entertain their children whenever they visit. Just ask at reception!

The activities are suitable for children aged 3 and up (with parental supervision please).

Greetings, my friends! Allow me, Pete the Plesiosaurus, to introduce our Family Newsletter. Sent out four times a year, it includes news of the fun activities happening here, and some entertaining adventures from Professor Ichthyosaurus.
