Visiting with children

Families and children of all ages are welcome at the National Museum of Scotland.

We provide a number of galleries and activities especially for children and an exciting events calendar for all ages.

Eating in the Museum

Children are welcome in Café Delos and there are special treats for children. High chairs and booster seats are also available, along with a facility for warming baby bottles.

Access and facilities

The National Museum of Scotland has baby changing facilities within a unisex toilet.

The Museum has level access and our exhibitions and galleries are accessible to all via lifts and ramps.

We also have trained first aiders on duty and a policy is in place if children become separated from their party.
