There’s not too much to add the the reviews here already except this:
If your child is under 8 then don’t even bother to take them to the Natural History museum in London - come here first.
Why? Well NHM London is unbelieveably crowded these days, you seem to be in a slow moving line the entire visit and so it’s a very restrictive environment for young children. It’s still got the best collection - but they’ll appreciate these distinctions better when they’re older.
NHM Oxford is a much more suitable environment for smaller children: more freedom to move and to observe or interact. Many of the exhibits can be touched which is so great for little kids (many are very good replicas - but that’s fine for this age group).
My kids love it here - and I can relax and have fun with them.
