Children take off on a playful journey through the night sky, exploring stars, planets and the wonders of space in an age-appropriate, immersive dome experience. With gentle storytelling, simple explanations and plenty of wonder, it’s the perfect first step into astronomy for curious little learners. Little Astronauts runs at 10:30 am during school terms and plays daily at 11:00 am during school holidays. Recommended ages 3-5
