NEMO Science Museum (Fast-Track Tickets) — tested with a 5-year-old and honestly, a very smart choice 👌 We spent several hours there and it was a mix of fun + learning (the rare combo that actually works). The fast-track tickets were totally worth it — no long waiting, straight into the action. Inside — 5 floors of interactive experiments, games, and “touch everything” science. Kids don’t just watch — they do. And that’s exactly why they love it
