This might not seem like the obvious place to take young children - but actually the aircraft are fascinating for even little ones, and the war element need not be dwelt on for the very young.  There is a huge amount to see here, with a whole range of different museums within the complex, and for school-age children this is a great opportunity for learning some history in a really interesting way.  The amazing AirSpace exhibition houses examples of some of the most significant developments in the history of aeroplanes - including Concorde, which is accessible to the public.  The American Air Museum displays aircraft from the second world war, as a tribute Americans who served during that time. 

There are many special events through the year, including impressive air shows - visit the website for full details.
