I have had one child in school for thirty consecutive years (that’s what happens when you space your children fifteen years apart) and throughout that time it’s saddened me to realise how many London kids don’t see the wealth of galleries and museums in their home city as their birthright.
A free exhibition as beautiful and interesting as ZOOOO! is a godsend to anyone working out how to keep kids amused and stimulated through the summer holidays – and it’s a particularly nice touch that the exhibition continues for these first two weeks of September. As we all know, at the end of the summer ‘shades of the prison house begin to close upon the growing boy’ [also the girl, man and woman in my lived experience] and anything that softens the return to scholastic endeavours and work in general is hugely welcomed.Â
If you’ve already seen ZOOOO!, lucky you: go there again if you have the opportunity. And if you haven’t yet seen ZOOOO! shuffle around any existing commitments you might have and catch it before it closes! Because it’s wonderful.Â
