From science kits to toys and games, there is a huge range of fun gifts available in the Discovery Museum shop, including a range of pocket money items. We asked Hazel Edwards, Manager of Discovery Museum, to select her favourite item from the Discovery Museum shop. Here's her 'curator's pick': "The Discovery shop has lots of quirky, good quality gifts and my favourite is the Tin Can Robot. This fun mechanics' kit shows you how to transform a metal drinks can into a walking, wobbling, bog-eyed robotic monster. "I think it would be a great gift to take to children's parties and it will definitely entertain the kids for a few hours. It also carries an important message about recycling as you have to rescue a drinks can, which would otherwise be thrown away, to make the robot."
