The Bank of England Museum is a surprisingly child friendly spot, using interactive displays, unusual coins, treasure hunts and storytelling sessions to help children learn about the history of money and the economy. In fact, the museum’s design is so good for kids that they have become a certified Children’s University (CU) Learning Destination.
