	make your company a featured listing here for only £12.99		Kidsguide tip Some galleries have regular family activity days: check the events section of their websites. Some also have children's trails and quiz sheets but these aren't always obvious so ask at the desk as you go in.
	Check before you go! Sometimes things change, places close down, contact details alter or we just make a mistake. There's nothing worse than disappointed kids so please contact the venue before you set off. If you do notice something wrong or out of date, please do other parents a favour and let us know.
