Discover - the children's discovery centre in Stratford - is a place where children set their minds free

The Story Trail at Discover provides anyone who enters the building with a magical key to the imagination - a story-making world of amazing adventures through secret caves, sparkling rivers, and flying pages peopled with baby space monsters, spoon puppets and big-footed giants. Out in the Story Garden children can play in the water fountain, slide down a monster's tongue, or dream they are flying to the moon.
